The Purple Evolution

What is “fair” in politics? Is “fair” even a word that should be associated with politics? Has our society gotten to the point of such polarization that we no longer even attempt to do what’s best for the majority of Americans – but rather what’s best for “our side?” The newly vacant seat on the Supreme Court has spurred much debate on the appropriate actions to take in filling it and questions regarding the law of the land vs. personal integrity are now being asked more frequently than ever. Will we ever again have “order in the court?”

Episode 14: Live From Kenosha

In the immediate aftermath of the tragic events in Kenosha, WI, Doug traveled there for work and was able to talk to many of the city's residents. We then opened up the phone lines to The Purple Evolution Podcast and spent hours upon hours listening to different opinions on what transpired; from the original shooting of Jacob Blake to the protests, riots and looting and then the killings by Kyle Rittenhouse and his lawyer's self-defense plea. Committed to being Purple, we used this episode to allow our listeners from all vantage points to voice their opinions.

Episode 16: The Rebel Flag

Does the rebel flag represent slavery and/or bigotry? Should the rebel flag be allowed to fly in government spaces? Can the rebel flag be a simple sign of southern pride without condescension or hate? These questions are investigated and answered by our listeners during an intriguing conversation about symbols and meanings – and the emotions they elicit.
