We have a special guest on this episode of the Semi-Americans Podcast…drum roll…Dr. Mark Spencer, MD. Mark joins us to discuss policing in the United States. This is one of our longer episodes but we honestly could have kept talking for longer (we definitely plan to have him on an episode again in the future). Mark provides great insight to the lack of accountability with policing and how the data does not support that policing provides public safety in the traditional sense we’ve been taught to believe. Our hope is that this information can encourage us all to find the means to better our communities through local efforts and supporting organizations/initiatives that push for the equality of marginalized populations.

S2 Episode 10: the trio calls friend of the show Lorrane Kabert, M.D. and has a lengthy discussion of transparency, commitment, and certainty. This was an unexpectedly fun and brain-busting episode for the team as Lorrane brought a fresh and thought-provoking perspective. Let us know if you’d like to be a guest call on an upcoming episode!

In S2 Episode 9, the trio continues discussing the current events going on in Ukraine and emphasize the importance of perspective and tolerance. We should always pursue understanding and knowledge from a different perspective than our own. We challenges you to get out of your comfort zone and seek a different perspective.

Recorded before the start of the Ukraine Invasion, on S2 Episode 8 the trio discusses the rise of conflicts in the world. Is there ever justification for war? Or has it always been about greed, money, and power?

Strive to stay conscious, choose peace and love ✌🏽

Misunderstandings…the root of conflict. In episode 9 of season 2, we discuss the importance of perspective and tolerance. As the trio continues to discuss the current events of the world, we realize that we have a moral obligation to pursue understanding and knowledge from a point of view other than our own. Through open dialogue and conversation, we are able to view events and situations from a lens that we may have never considered and are able to gain empathy and compassion. This week, we challenge our listeners to get out of their comfort zone and seek to learn a new perspective on life or a topic from someone that you may not relate to.
