Thunken Philosofers
A police officer, an opinionated digital marketer, and an easy-going bank teller get together every couple weeks to dive deep into a different topic. Hosts [Isaac, Brandon, and Blake] tackle politics, technology, science, and whatever else tickles their fancy with equal parts research, humor, and authenticity. Stay a while as we wax philosophical about the things. Visit us at https://thunkenphilosofers.com/
