About this episode
The episode discusses civil discourse and communication across political divides with guests from MoreLikeUs.org.
Sam Bushman and Sheriff Richard Mack sits down with James Cohen (Executive Director) and Anne Schockett (Co-Chair) of MoreLikeUs.org to discuss how their organization is teaching college students — and everyday Americans — the skills to communicate across political divides without labeling or fighting.
