I first heard today's guest, Linda Znachko, unexpectedly at an event several months ago. She had me in tears within a few minutes of telling her story.

Sanity and Civility in 2019 with Audrey Scagnelli
Ever felt like you were going crazy when political issues get hot? I feel ya. So does today's podcast guest, Audrey Scagnelli. Bipartisanship and civility is kind of her middle name.
