Project: Incomplete
Project: Incomplete is an unfiltered discussion on the forces shaping (or breaking) an entire generation into what it is (and isn’t) today. As our society becomes increasingly divided on issues both controversial and mundane, J.R. and Kevin find conversations to be a crucial tool to bridge the divide. Together, we're channeling this spirit and inviting others to do the same by joining us on the podcast and engaging with us on social media, as we discuss topics including personal responsibility, identity politics, and how the modern day young adult can carve out their own position with more opinion and information than we can comprehend.
