On June 16, 2026 on the American daytime talk show called The View, Moderator and Co-Host Whoopi Goldberg posed a series of questions to Vice President J.D. Vance to which he responded. It's an interesting example of why the hard work of interacting has such impact and what happens when people treat each other with dignity.

Are you grateful for anything? Do you think you should be, but you're not? Have you heard of having "an attitude of gratitude" but it seems to not be genuine? What about being grateful for getting part, but not all of what you wanted to get? Is that a cop-out or does it help us find agreement with those we find to be disagreeable? Scott and Shawn step off into these questions and more!

This episode starts with two opposite opinions about the future of AI. Steven Bartlett (Diary of a CEO) who thinks AI will allow us to become more human, and Tucker Carlson who seems to believe that AI will rob us of our humanity by taking away our need to create. Join Scott and Shawn as they unpack the facts and the inferences and dive into the disagreement in the 2PP way!

Scott throws a random pitch to Shawn without deep preparation. Tune in to see how Shawn responds and how the conversation goes from "No Kings" to "Sloganeering." Eventually, the discussion reveales an interesting question: "What if you're wrong?"

This episode dives into vaccinations. Yes! We take risks here at 2PP! Scott and Shawn start with the flu and shingles vaccines and (yes we do . . . ) go into Covid, Autism, polio, climate change and a few other controversial topics. Do you like being inspired to think? This is the episode for you!

Scott and Shawn go on beyond operations and process as they jump into systems. What is a system? How is it different from a process? And what makes a system strong and more importantly . . . what makes a system fragile?

Does your intent matter when you communicate? Does what you intend change how you connect, and does it change how others connect with you? Scott and Shawn decide to jump into this episode without a plan. Come ride the storm with them!

Is something that's hard to do also difficult? Is difficult stuff hard to do? What about pain and suffering? Do you have to suffer just because you feel pain?
