  • Summary

  • Season 2 | Episode 6


    The groundswell of support for more political options beyond Dems and GOP has never been stronger. So, why do third parties and their candidates struggle to gain traction?

    Well, it’s complicated as John and Bill discuss. Quick look at history shows the policies of many third parties are wildly popular… only to be hijacked by candidates who go way too far with some radical ideas that turn people off.

    There is hope that younger voters will figure their way out of this paradox? The younger set certainly is frustrated with both major parties, and potentially hold the power to make much needed changes in our two-party system. But will they? Or will social media and AI continue to derail the process of moving the country away from the “UniParty.”

    The guys also yak about why local transportation is another key topic that could propel third party candidates. How good intentions behind policies turn bad. And the silliness of predicting the impact of AI when nobody really has control of it.
