About this listen

TJ and Dustin discuss the pervasive issue of avoidance in addressing serious societal problems such as gun violence, climate change, and racism. It highlights how people often react to these issues with denial or oversimplification to avoid discomfort and necessary changes. Through personal anecdotes and therapeutic insights, the guys emphasize the need for national honesty and courage to confront uncomfortable truths. The conversation critiques the systemic avoidance embedded in cultural narratives and political ideologies and advocates for collective rituals of accountability, truth-telling, and nuanced understanding to foster genuine progress and healing. #AvoidanceCulture, #UncomfortableTruths, #TheSlogPod, #ClimateCrisis, #EndRacism, #AccountabilityCulture, #EmotionalCourage, #HealingTogether
