"Hope is not passive. Hope moves, speaks, resists, and acts." In the wake of upheaval and uncertainty, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or sidelined. But silence and inaction only strengthen fear and hate. This podcast is for everyday Americans who refuse to stand by. Here, we confront misinformation head-on, call out the politics of division, and remind each other that courage and clarity are contagious. With sharp conversations, honest reflection, and practical steps, Aaron brings both urgency and hope – helping listeners resist despair, reject lies, and remember that action is the most powerful form of hope. Politically, I identify as a progressive and as a Democrat. I'm a 'pragmatic' progressive, voting for progress, which is typically led by Democrats. And - since I'm on the 'left wing' of the political spectrum - that makes me a liberal.
