Whiskey Congress Podcast
Summary: Unfiltered discussions about race, politics, and entertainment by a black guy and a white guy who aim to cut through bias and spin. One has a law degree the other is an engineer and they are both bald. We do it for the whiskey and of course for America! Steve and Jim use this podcast as a voice, not just for their own thoughts, but for all those with common sense and thirst for thoughtful analysis. Their mission is to cut through the bias and the spin of the media and look at the issues that effect the average person. Their goal is to stimulate thoughts and to be a catalyst for people to continue the conversations beyond the closing show music. They strive to give each of their listeners the tools they need to go find the truth and spread it like fire.
