    Thankfulness in 2020: The Positives of Our Current World

    This episode is the last full episode of season three of the Nightcap Podcast. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'm going to speak on the aspects of our current society that are worth noting, from self-expression to conversation and more. I'll be taking December off, but then getting right back into it with four episodes that I find to be really important and then season four! Thank you for supporting the show!

    The 2020 Vote: The Impact of an Unprecedented Election Year

    The 2020 Vote: The Impact of an Unprecedented Election Year

    Today's episode is my take on what to think about for tomorrow's election, and how to navigate an extremely difficult socio-political climate. I discuss some of the more important pieces of how the process works, talk about how I view both candidates, and discuss why things are so difficult right now. It's a hard time to use your voice, but it's more important than ever. However you decide to vote, or if you decide to vote, is a personal and important decision, and we should all be trying to communicate instead of mandate to those around us. Thank you for listening, please reach out with feedback or for discussion.

Excellent and informative

Jon presents a well researched abc very entertaining program. One man podcasts can be a bit difficult to listen to, but Jon is incredibly engaging and makes you engrossed in the topics he discusses.
