The Reframe

Great perspectives on political action and social issues. I enjoyed the evidence on journalism episode. Very interesting and intellectual. The host is very clear and detailed! Looking forward to more!

Josiah van Vliet is a revitalizing analytical thinker. His podcast The Reframe approaches difficult political and social matters through refreshing lenses that offer hope for humanity and present new avenues for action. Re-examining urgent issues such as the need for a new hard-edged economic mode of argumentation for the left, a postmodern explanation for Republican anger, and new ways of thinking about and acting on the anti-vaxxer fiasco and the decaying rule of law in America, Josiah reconstructs the issues that matter, and how we approach them, to the purpose of making action easier for people who care about values and want to make a difference in their world.

It's a great premise -- look at an issue, explain how it is usually approached, and then explain how we need to reframe our understanding in order to to where we want to go with that issue. I'm hoping that future episodes will be just as informative, clear, and cogent.

Thanks for making this podcast. It is refreshing to get a sprinkle of real in the current atmosphere of murky, processed, canned info we are all so accustomed to getting during our daily trudge. Keep talkin', people will listen.
