why so political?

by Neha Yadavalli

My name is Neha Yadavalli, and I am a high school student based in the United States. My whole life, current and historical political events have never failed to intrigue me. Going into high school, I met several individuals who share the same interest as me. This opened my eyes to create a podcast for teenagers by a teenager. Here, I cover anything from middle ground to informational content. My goal is to de-stigmatize certain "controversial" topics that society has forced us to avoid. Regardless of what your political stance may be, I hope you enjoy this podcast.
