Mike shares his perspectives on being a 'conservative' in the United States. He talks about gun control, the current government situation, climate change, racism, taxes, student debt, leadership, parenting, and many other topics. Although he is a "Conservative Texan" his responses may surprise you as, once again, stereotypes don't necessarily hold up.

Episode 2- Deaf Identity
This week, we talk with Alex who identifies as Deaf. If you prefer to read, rather than listen to the show, a full transcript is available at wishyouknewpodcast.com/transcripts. This episode was done in honor of the International Week of the Deaf which is celebrated the third week of September every year. To learn more about the International Week of the Deaf, check out this information at the World Federation of the Deaf website (wfdeaf.org/about-us/international-week-of-the-deaf/). Alex mentions the National Assocation of the Deaf, you can find their website here (www.nad.org). She also gives an endorsement for following #deaftalent. These are a few of my favorite videos from YouTube. This song makes me teary every time I watch it (youtu.be/AVuqXyufZGc). This one inspires us all to live out our full potential, regardless of what others say (youtu.be/D16xDDyDjW4). This is a great video that came out about six months ago with other Deaf perspectives (youtu.be/wa0nxppMJ-Q). Also, if you are interested in learning some American Sign Language (ASL) The Daily Moth is a great online news station in ASL – maybe better for practice than learning. (www.dailymoth.com) And, a TED talk featuring #deaftalent. (youtu.be/2Euof4PnjDk) If you are really lucky, go see Spring Awakening – a Broadway show featuring #deaftalent.
