The Good Life, If You Can Keep It
The Good Life, If You Can Keep It
Erica Schauer & Wes Dodge
We all know our political system needs some fine-tuning, or an overhaul. Let’s talk about what we can do other than complain and blame the “Others”. Join Erica Schauer, Wes Dodge and others as they explore fixes to our faltering political system. A couple of times a month we will bring you interviews and banter with those who we hope will enlighten us and guide us toward building that more perfect union. If you enjoy discussions about politics, intelligent or otherwise, Wes and Erica will try to educate and entertain.
