Flip Side of the Coin
Flip Side of the Coin is a podcast where people can go to explore different viewpoints on many issues. We take an issue and in one episode we examine and explore one viewpoint, and then in the next episode we do the same for the other side of the issue. Our goal is to give our listeners a place where they can explore differing viewpoints and their merits without feeling the need to defend themselves or argue back. Join us as we explore political and social issues, and even break down some issues that are just for fun, as we examine how others view the world in Flip Side of the Coin.

In Favor of Buses
This week we are starting a conversation around transportation. We begin by looking at buses and discussing some of the arguments that proponents of buses raise when discussing their benefits.
We look at how buses offer flexibility in public transit at a fraction of the cost of building out a rail system. We also take a brief look at Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems and how they can mimic light rail without the cost of laying track.
