You Are The Guest Show 78 - Views of America From Abroad
from You Are The Guest Podcast
Jon Peder is a 17 year-old high school student from Norway and is the Deputy Chairman of his country's socialist youth organization. Jon Peder talks about his political involvement with his youth group and tells about a recent issue that they took action on. I find out Jon Peder's impressions about America and Americans, and try to dispel some myths about the U.S. that seem to have been generated by his viewing of American mass media such as TV shows and films. Jon Peder asks me what is my view on gay marriage, if I think a third political party will rise to prominence in the United States, if the KKK is gaining ground in America, and if Americans only care about themselves and don't care about what is happening in the rest of the world.
