Today we will inaugurate a new President. After an election year it’s easy to have big government be your only focus, but have you ever stopped to think how much the President actually affects your day-to-day life? In today’s episode you’ll see that local government often has a much larger impact on you and your family.

Connor brings Graham Mitchell on the show to give his unique perspective as a City Manager. (Not sure what a city manager is? All the more reason you should listen to this episode!) He talks about issues his city has faced and gives a real world approach to some major societal issues. For example, we have all heard the debate on defunding the police. Rather than a hypothetical conversation you will quickly see how complicated these problems are and how complex the answers may be.
