We go head-to-head on:
- Islam and culture in the West
- Socialism, communism, and the idea of utopia
- Privilege and identity politics
- The death penalty, crime, and justice
- Even the shocking reality of witnessing an execution in the electric chair
Clive and I disagree on almost everything — but that’s exactly why this conversation matters. If you’ve ever wondered how the “other side” thinks about prisons, privilege, or politics, this is the episode to watch.
