Venice Pulse: Episode 17 with Chuck & Buck

On today’s episode, long time guest Jim Buck moves onto the co-host seat because Sandy is in Echo Park reporting on a mysterious submarine! The show opens with Chuck & Jim (recently back from his “home” state of Indiana) contrasting the differences in life between Los Angeles and Indianapolis. The two then discuss the importance of political engagement - particularly in relation to voting rights. Jim delves into his “Protect 2026” campaign, which aims to establish voting as a form of free speech. The conversation then touches on the societal issue of “wealth and power” addiction - and why nobody is addressing it, and the two question if white people should receive reparations. The pod concludes with Chuck asking “who is the best L.A. born comedian?”. It’s a diverse podcast this week folks, enjoy!
