Episode 5: Guns, Gun Violence & Gun Control

An unedited raw talk with host AJ Garcia and James Hyams. James joins me for a second time to discuss the pressing issue of guns and violence. They discuss some of the differences between the US, Australia and South Korea as it relates to guns and we share our thoughts and frustrations. We also discuss on how we can possibly make this better.

A disclaimer: James and AJ Garcia are no experts on the topic of guns. They are just two people who are tired of the loss of life.
