Episode 15: Hypocritical much?

Our second episode inspired by a listener comment - this time about the hypocrisy of both parties. Hear what she has to say, and whether we agree, or disagree, and what we do with that information. We inevitably trend back to another thorny topic in this episode, and blue fish holds red fish's feet (do fish have feet?!) to the fire.
