What is Left Wing, Right Wing, and the Political Spectrum?

  • Summary

  • Today, Corey talks Left Wing and Right Wing - what do they mean, and what exactly is the political spectrum? 

    It’s a shift from what you’ve heard so far on the podcast. We’re veering away from an interview format and focusing on going deep on specific ideas in a more story-telling, explorative format. That, and, we're also focusing on actually *defining terms*. Hope you enjoy the experiment! More coming your way. Stay tuned, and appreciate that feedback as always.
