The Provokers

Welcome to The Provokers! Here we talk about things that you probably should too. We want to create a place where we can all chill and hang out with each other. In this day and age, it's hard to even have a conversation anymore, especially with someone you might disagree with. Our mission is to re-kindle that lost idea by chatting about important topics and non-important topics. So grab your headphones, relax, and enjoy!
