S5 E13: Election 2020 - Biden vs. Trump

Episode Summary

We have less than 48 hours before the end of Election 2020. P-Mo chats with the co-chairs of Thai-Americans for Biden about the need to remain active after Nov. 3, regardless of who wins the election. What does that activism look like? What is the value of having a discussion? Can we find a way to co-exist regardless of our political inclinations? We also discuss how the Netflix/YouTube production of Cobra Kai is actually a mirror of our political climate. What can we learn from Johnny and Daniel about empathy, discussion and co-existing?
