Mutually Assured Discussion

By Jacob Fry and Chris Boon

Discussing current events, politics, and news of an America that's more divided by wealth and ideology than in the last 40 years. With the upcoming 2022 election, all of the culture wars and talking points are going to be elevated once again all the way up to 2024. This is with no clear democratic candidate without a sub 40 approval rating or even a clear progressive challenger who isn't old.
Hosted by Jacob Fry and Chris Boon.
Based in Lincoln, Nebraska.
