In this truly insightful episode with Professor David Yamane of Wake Forest University, we dive into the concept of Gun Culture 2.0 and the transformation of America's gun culture. The conversation explores the shift from hunting and collecting firearms to self-defense, gun ownership as a hobby, and the tactical world of gun ownership. David emphasizes the importance of civil conversations and the challenges of emotional arguments, as well as the need for open and nuanced conversations that focus on shared values and common ground. We discuss David's upcoming book, Gun Curious and Jordan talks about how he actually read it. (we're all shocked) It's rare to get someone as eloquent and knowledgeable on the topics from the "other side", and David's perspectives are invaluable to the conversation about gun rights, gun control, and more.

Maryam is a single mother and daughter of Iranian parents who after a spending her earlier years working in Afghanistan rebuilding water infrastructure, decided to run for office. Being a Democrat and for "gun safety for kids", we were pretty confident of where she stood on guns before we started.

Join us as we discuss Steve's 20-year career as a Green Beret, music to get you pumped, the origins of Tractor Boy, and more.
