For today’s episode, I recorded with author Zachary Elwood about his new book ‘Defusing American Anger’ - A Guide to Understanding our Fellow Citizens and Reducing Us-vs-Them Polarization. The book examines the roots of our anger, showing that many reasons for our anger are based on distorted views.

For today’s episode, I recorded with Lauren Ell. We talk about finding meaning in life, morality, and her take on political and social issues from the perspective of, among other things, a mom and an atheist who identifies as a Republican. Together, we find parallels between Stoic Philosophy and her views.

Lauren Ell founded several atheist organizations, most notably Republican Atheists, Atheist Moms, and Atheists We Are. She has lived most of her life in Southern California but moved abroad to Sweden for love in 2016. While abroad, she has launched American-Swedish organizations, Americans Sweden and Nordic Republicans. She has been featured in media outlets such as NPR, PJ Media and national Swedish live news and print.
