Episode 1 - Introduction

We're all American, and we need to unite. Let's discuss conversations that people want to avoid, because without doing so our future looks dark. Political division Gender wars Identity politics Tribalism These are distractions to keep us fighting amongst ourselves while Big Tech, media, major corporations, and corrupt politicians get their way at the expense of the American people. We all share the same goal: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It's time for Americans to unite, regardless of our differences. We're all in this together, regardless of gender, race, age, political affiliation, or any other category we choose to throw ourselves under.  The host, Manny, is a 32 year old Hispanic American whose parents immigrated from the Dominican Republic. He grew up in poverty, was influenced by many of the things affecting minority youth today, and broke out of the cycle. He is now happily married, has two kids (with a 3rd on the way), and takes pride in being a leader, provider, and protector. Manny earned a graduate degree in public health and has chosen a career focused on helping target populations overcome adversity and thrive.  Manny openly falls independent on the political spectrum, but adopted conservative principles in his personal life. As a left-leaning Democrat most of his life, Manny understands the perspectives of half of the population but does not turn these ideas away; rather, Manny calls for unity and bipartisanship so that the American people can overcome and thrive together. He believes that we all have common enemies in the press, social media platforms, and corrupt politicians that keep the American people divided and distracted.  Enough is enough. This podcast is a call for unity.  It's time for America to unplug. *Song Credit: New Front (makaih.com) by Makaih Beats
