In this first part of a conversation with recent Democratic candidate for governor Dr. Chris Jones, Glen and April explore with Chris how he views his politics, some of the early life influences on his political views, and his strong belief that all points on the political spectrum can contribute to problem solving. He explains his approach to dealing with political differences, which includes preference for "high conflict" vs "conflict entrepreneurs." He also discusses the voluntary nature of our social contract and the need to "re-humanize" each other, and he compares the concepts of "calling out" vs "calling in" when faced with possible destructive political views and actions by others.
