Being that we're both students of history, we're going to leave the numbers aside today and talk about the parallels between today's political climate and what daily life was like in 1939. It was the beginning of World War II. There is a similar sense of foreboding and worry. 

So today lets look at the current geopolitical conditions and their historical parallels with 1939 including rising power, nationalism and anxiety.

08.29.25 - Ok Boomer, Ok Millennial

Today we have new numbers to share of over 1,00 likely voters tracking their thoughts on the President’s approval and several major issues. Trump's approval rating has improved slightly after a dip due to the Epstein story. We’ll analyze the latest data around the top concerns for voters, including inflation, healthcare, immigration, and crime, and which party voters think is better equipped to handle these issues. 

We’ll also touch on the Democrats' struggle to define their agenda and appeal to key voting groups, with debate on whether their focus on scandals like Epstein helps or hinders their position.

Today on the podcast, we do need to address the terrible tragedy this week with the assassination of Charlie Kirk, as well as the continuing epidemic of shootings around the country. Many things are lost here. 

Our main topic today is that we have some new polling data on Independents - who they are and what it could mean in 2026. We asked them about both major parties’ strengths and weaknesses and their feedback is not good news for either party.

Finally - we’ll talk about our current climate and the need and opportunity to re-humanize politics. If one or both parties fail to seize that opportunity it is at everyone’s peril.

Thanks for tuning in - we’ll see you next week.
