I don't want to hear anything else from anyone that lives in California or New York. I think I had my head in the sand because I live in this California bubble where everything goes, and now I'm having to reevaluate a lot of what I thought I knew about our country.
Feeling the weight of post-election emotions? You're not alone. In this episode of 'This Life #YOULIVE', Dr. Drew, Bob Forrest, civil rights attorney Areva Martin, and comedian Mike Carano dive into the emotional rollercoaster that follows an election. The conversation kicks off with a light-hearted chat about drug advertisements and their legality, setting a relaxed tone before diving into the heart of the matter: post-election blues.
Areva Martin brings her expertise to the table, discussing the power dynamics within states and how disenfranchised communities can mobilize to elect officials who represent their interests. She emphasizes the crucial role of mental health and addiction treatment in tackling broader social issues. Mike Carano shares his personal journey of shifting political views and the impact it has had on his relationships, adding a layer of relatability and introspection.
The group doesn't shy away from controversial topics like the death penalty and intra-Hispanic racism, making for a robust and thought-provoking discussion. They wrap up with a call for unity and collaboration, urging listeners to bridge political divides and work together for a better future. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with post-election stress or looking for ways to foster understanding and cooperation in these polarized times.
