Summary

In this episode of Drunk Ex-Pastors we catch up on some listeners' voicemails. We discuss the issue of campaign promises and whether they reveal candidates' actual intentions, or if they're only generic indicators of their ideology. We talk about the intertwining of democracy and violence, expressing serious suspicion about whether the former is ever possible without the latter. Lastly we explore the relationship of wealth and power (as in, why do the obscenely rich continue to accumulate more and more?).
