"Never talk about religion or politics in polite company". This bad advice is actually responsible for a lot of the divide in today's society - here's why.

“Never talk about religion or politics in polite company”

We’ve all heard variations on that over the years, right?

And while the underlying intention may be good, I firmly believe that not only is it wrong to avoid such talk, that advice is actually at the root of a lot of the problems and divisions we experience in society today.

That’s what we explore in this episode
