The mission of “Issues Under Fire” is to instigate and invigorate the social discourse of the hottest topics facing the nation and beyond. This Independent teaching/learning talk program consistently surprises, stimulates and challenges listeners and viewers by providing radical observations and reasoning designed to reshape and sharpen debates.

Podcasting Monday through Friday, we provide alternative analysis of some of the most complex issues confronting the world. Understandably, what we cover can be rather stale in the hands of yesterday’s approach to informing the global public, so we spice things up a bit to inspire a smile and incite a laugh while inducing deeper thought and consideration.

Your host, Lee Bines is our resident political pundit providing opinion and analysis on specific subject areas (most typically U.S. domestic politics, U.S. foreign policy and current geopolitical issues as they relate to the United States). A satirist and political provocateur, Lee has developed and blended a unique mix of entertainment and social activism through thought provoking conversation.

Managing to push the envelope to the very edge of social acceptability without crossing the line of good taste is a difficult task in today’s media, but Lee and “Issues Under Fire” have mastered that challenge.
