Special Edition of Peach Pundit the Podcast: Interview with Tim Redmond, author of “Political Tribalism in America”

We’ve got a special edition of Peach Pundit the Podcast for you. Just before Christmas, I interviewed Tim Redmond, the author of a recent book, Political Tribalism in America: How Hyper-Partisanship Dumbs Down Democracy and How to Fix It. Tim received his PhD from SUNY Buffalo, and he currently teaches in the Buffalo area. He is also the teacher training director for the Academy for Human Rights. And for fans of hardcore, Tim is the drummer for the Buffalo-based Snapcase. While I gather that most of our listening audience aren’t huge hardcore and punk rock fans, Snapcase is well known in those circles. I grew up with Progression Through Unlearning and Designs for Automation blaring out of my car stereo or at work. Actually, I still rock out to those two records on a regular basis.

Tim and I discuss the state of our politics and how we, as citizens, can educate and inform ourselves to put the United States back on a more stable track. We also talk a little about Snapcase, and their plans in the coming months.

Scot, Buzz, and I are recording our first regular episode of 2025 this evening, so be on the lookout for that.
