PILOT: "Buckle Up. The Plane Is Taking Off."

Welcome to the The Cidré Room, where real conversations about real change take place. Join activists, reformers, and social influencers Shavonia Corbin Johnson and Cole Goodman, as they break down what is happening around the country, with the hopes of  motivating independent determined reformers to make a difference in their community.

This is the pilot episode, and we are building the plane as we fly. In this introductory episode, you get to meet your pilots.

We are not a pundit-driven talk show where one side is always right, but rather a mutually respective discussion about attitudes, reforms, and state-of-affairs. We plan on moving outside our comfort zone, because real change requires us to be uncomfortable.

Settle in. Grab a drink. Get uncomfortable. Change the world.
