Red Fish Blue Fish Podcast Podcast

Rosina and David are two friends who grew up in the same small Wisconsin town of Beaver Dam, WI. They have similar backgrounds - and are of course both Packers fans - on opposite sides of the political spectrum. They have observed a deepening division in this country, and decided to conduct a series of civil discussions on various topics. Before listening in on their discussions, get to know them in the episode "The Who and Why Behind Red Fish Blue Fish".

    Hypocritical much?

    Our second episode inspired by a listener comment - this time about the hypocrisy of both parties. Hear what she has to say, and whether we agree, or disagree, and what we do with that information. We inevitably trend back to another thorny topic in this episode, and blue fish holds red fish's feet (do fish have feet?!) to the fire.
