Manage episode 290296760 series 2810452
The Cereal Party of Los and Bertram is back with a new problem they are trying to solve.
The first step in solving any problem is admitting that there is one. The United States of America has a tremendous problem with gun violence, whether we want to admit it or not.
Los and Bertram try to dissect the causes of this violence and look at all sides of the issue. This episode is less about statistics and more about solutions, as well as the root causes behind the problem.
