#012— We've Got To Become Adults

This week's guest is Oregon State Senator Lew Frederick (D-District 22). The senator discusses how he's come to terms with the frustratingly slow pace of change, the changes in America he's seen and is yet to see, and why he remains cautiously optimistic about future progress. He also discusses the obstacles presented by an adversarial media and the possibilities for moving beyond that style of political coverage to something that might contribute to a healthier politics in the future.

This episode features "Up to You," an original song by Eric Todd Smith (soundcloud.com/erictoddsmithtunes).
