When discussing issues of sexual assault or sexual harassment, women are often blamed for some aspect of the circumstances; rather than condemning the act of abuse. Whether her appearance or the way she decided to tell her story is criticized or judged. We discuss this and more as we explore a recent incident that took place in the Australian Parliament.

I had the privilege of hosting for Talk of the Town's Steve Noxon; host of one of Connecticut's longest running local radio talk programs.  Special thanks to Talk of the Town and all those who support WATR 1320 AM Radio. 

Have words and convos about liberals, conservatives, right and left-wing left you wondering "What does it mean?" Well, me too. Which is why my friend Dan provides an explanation on various terms discussed this election season. We also touch the topic of freedom of expression and the importance of understanding different views.

I think we can all agree that over the past few months there has been a divide on various topics; whether it's politics, COVID-19, or racial injustice. But are these just difference of opinions or is there a definitive right and wrong? I am joined by my long time friend Alexis and she helps me process and discuss, is this a difference of opinion or just something more?

There has never been a good time to remain silent when injustice is happening all around.
