Honest conversations about the issues dividing America. Hosted by Amna Nawaz, we're tackling the tough stuff: race, gender, economics, religion. You may not agree with everything you hear, but we can't move beyond our problems until we talk about them. Each episode features an in-depth interview with an influential voice in America to unpack not just what we believe, but why we believe what we do.

Loved the episode with Colin Hansen 2018! Thank you for having voices like his !
