This week we decided to try something a little different. Today we invited two guests onto the show that sit on opposite sides of a particularly meaningful topic to Americans today. The topic today is understanding CAPITALISM. We look at pros and cons, historical and cultural impacts, and popular misconceptions surrounding capitalism, and our relationship with this economic system.  Please help us welcome James Carter and Jon DeAmicis! To put it plain and simple, Jon is arguing FOR capitalism, James is arguing AGAINST capitalism, and we’re going to listen to them hash it out! Why host a debate? We believe that literally anyone could do a better job of debating topics than the people who run our political debates, and we want to demonstrate that normal adults can disagree with each other and still behave. This was SUCH an exciting episode to create and we can’t wait to hear how everyone feels about this conversation! Feedback is welcome! Thank you all.  *** OUR PODCAST IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE!
