About
The Full Story
The Agora began initially as a passion project founded by 4 friends who wanted to explore political issues. Over time, we realized there was a need for deeper, more thoughtful conversations. Conversations are needed in order to create critical thought and understanding. So we created a podcast that dives into politics and economics in depth. We hope you enjoy it!
