I had such a fun conversation with @coreysnathan on Talkin‘ Politics & Religion Without Killin‘ Each Other. We talked powerlifting, founding cross-fitters, parenting, and why democracy depends on people actually knowing how to use it. It's all here: youtube.com/watch?v=4janQB…

@CalebJSmith Oh thank you! And please know that I’m always open for suggestions on topics and how to make this better
