In this episode, Mandy Connell dives into the controversy surrounding the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that was once a beacon of hope for fighting racism and hate, but has since been accused of losing its mission and becoming a "grift." Mandy shares her thoughts on how the organization's actions have led to a culture of division and hate, and how it's time for a change.

The conversation also touches on the future of electric vehicle charging, as Mandy talks to Sam Say and John Patterson of Ev Charge, a Colorado-based startup that's creating a peer-to-peer EV charging network. They discuss the challenges of building a reliable charging infrastructure and how their platform can help homeowners monetize their existing charging equipment. From the impact of the Iran war on the global oil market to the importance of supporting Israel, this episode covers a wide range of topics that will keep you engaged and informed.

Mandy also shares her thoughts on the importance of being mindful of the companies we support and the impact of our consumer choices. She discusses the rise of the gig economy and how it's changing the way we think about work and leisure. And, as always, she tackles some of the lighter side of life, including the joy of popping bubble wrap and the importance of taking breaks.
