Are You Convinced Yet? | MiniPod

iHeartPodcasts and Reasoned Choice
About this episode

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum get philosophical and ask:  is it worth it to try to convince people? 

 

If you’re talking with someone and you disagree, when is it appropriate–and when is it impossible–to convert them to your side? We’re looking at you, undecided voters.

 

If you’d like to submit a question, check out our tutorial video: www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/

 

We are 29 days away from the election. Welcome home y’all!
