Listen to Latest PeppTalk Episode on Navigating Political Differences

Enjoy a new episode of PeppTalk—Pepperdine's podcast dedicated to sparking conversations of personal and global significance, featuring world-renowned professors, faculty, and students from across the University.

In partnership with Pepperdine's Boone Center for the Family and hosted by Alexa Borstad and Coby Dolloff, the series tackles relationships. Whether single or married, a parent or a grandparent, a senior professional or just starting out in the workplace, relationships play a significant role in our daily lives. And we all experience the stress that they can produce—the misunderstandings, the confusion, the hope for a different interaction. If healthy relationships are at the center of a flourishing, successful life, why don’t we have an easier time navigating them? PeppTalk dives deep into these very questions, offering insights and guidance. 

Available now, listen to the latest episode featuring Kelly Haer and Dee Dee Mayer from the Boone Center for the Family as they explore how followers of Christ can navigate political differences without letting them divide relationships. Just in time for the holiday season, they unpack why political conversations feel more personal and polarizing today—and share practical, faith-centered ways to stay connected even when opinions differ and conflict arises.
