What the HELL is an AmeriPod?

Trump's America got you feelin' blue? Steve Bannon giving you night terrors? Well fear not, the resistance has begun. Join four activists - John Anderson, John Kelly, Blake Manion, and Tyler Mayo - for a (sometimes) on topic conversation about whatever shenanigans the regime is up to that week, and what YOU can do about it. Democracy is always at risk - liberty is action, freedom is not guaranteed.
