NCForrest ,

Thoroughly thorough and absolutely absolute

Dr. Donaldson’s knowledge and expertise covers literally 100% of all my experience with these debates, and so much more.

If you ever wanted to learn more about a controversial topic, either to support your pre-existing beliefs or to find what side to stand with, Aaron Donaldson will lay it bare for you in a way that is entertaining to listen to. He makes debate sexy.

America would be a better place if you listened to this.

The host loves to put together well reasoned debates. Debating is good, because it expands your understanding of an issue. This podcast should be required listening.
