Controversial And Sensitive Topics

How To Talk About Politics And Elections

Talking about politics and elections is tricky, especially in a world where each side is convinced there is only one right choice (and it’s theirs).

Most shows should be somewhere in between. The sweet spot relates to the most relevant topics of the day but doesn’t devolve into the mudslinging and controversy. There is a way to do it, and it’s your responsibility to find a way to reflect it within the boundaries of your character profile.
