Summary

In this episode of the podcast, Michael Cohen and Brian Karem take a hard look at the growing divisions tearing through American politics and society. From escalating global conflicts to deepening partisan warfare at home, the country feels more fractured than ever. Michael and Brian break down the dangerous consequences of a nation increasingly defined by political tribalism, misinformation, and leaders who profit from keeping Americans angry at one another. They ask the big question: when a country stops listening to itself, what happens next? If history tells us anything, it’s that a divided nation is a vulnerable one. Because in moments like this, one thing becomes painfully clear... divided we are doomed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
