Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2156317/fan_mail/new] Today, I'm joined by two of my absolute favorite influencers, Landon Reid and Alex Cascio to discuss various topics related to the experiences and frustrations of younger generations. We touch on issues such as the challenges of finding affordable housing, the impact of credit scores, the lack of enthusiasm for driving among young people, and the need for gun control. We also discuss the barriers to running for office and the need for election reform. The conversation covers topics such as voter registration, gerrymandering, the importance of voting, and the impact of racism and money in society.

The importance of checking voter registration and advocating for fair voting practices * The impact of gerrymandering on elections and the need for redistricting reform * The significance of voting and the potential for change, even in heavily red or blue areas * The role of racism and money in shaping societal issues * The influence of social media and online presence in sharing ideas and connecting with others Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2156317/support] Executive Producer and Host: Vanessa Joy: https://linktr.ee/vanesstradiol [https://linktr.ee/vanesstradiol] Vanesstradiol Podcast - Copyright © 2023-2025 Vanessa Joy [https://www.vanesstradiol.com]
