Purple Political Breakdown

The current landscape of politics in this era is arguably the most ideologically split it's ever been. We have people on the left and right, liberal and conservative, democrat and republican who utterly despise one another and most times refuse to even have a discussion. So I'm here to push the needle and force conversation amongst the most controversial and informative topics in Society! This is the Purple Political Breakdown a new podcast that will change the way we view politics.
