Looks Like We're Lost
Dustin Riedesel & Tommy Cooksey
Being lost is the exact same as exploring. The only difference is a sense of adventure. Tommy and Dusty use their friendship to navigate all the topics that interest and confuse them: Why do politics make us hate each other? Should we teach children obedience or compassion? Are fedoras the worst kind of hat? Is happiness more about frequency or intensity? Weekly episodes and guests from all walks of life take their friendship on a constantly evolving journey to places they do not know ... YET!
