Do you ever wonder how media and corporate interests shape our political landscape? Join us on this special edition of the Friends in Wonder podcast as Vince Kern and Joe Luther reconnect to delve into Joe's passionate involvement in the Kennedy campaign in Michigan. Joe, an attorney with a rich background in political science, shares his motivations and experiences as a volunteer coordinator, underscoring his belief in the candidate’s integrity and dedication to transparent political discourse. We'll uncover the grassroots efforts that shaped his year-long journey and discuss the challenges and triumphs he faced along the way.

Explore the pervasive influence of media corporations on public discourse and political division. Our discussion examines how profit-driven media companies manipulate public perception and foster conflict, making it difficult for people to see the larger forces at play. Joe provides a unique perspective on generational differences in media consumption, noting the younger generation's savvy navigation of the complex media landscape.

We also tackle the challenges faced by third-party candidates like Mr. Kennedy, who strive to bring genuine grassroots movements into the political arena. Learn about the concept of "corporate capture" and the importance of seeking diverse sources of information. This episode highlights the significance of community involvement and personal responsibility in political engagement, urging listeners to take an active role in shaping the nation’s future.
