Drowning in the noise? Tired of debates that go nowhere?
Round Table MINDSET cuts through the chaos with bold, unfiltered conversations on the issues that matter. No echo chambers. No screaming matches. Just honest dialogue that challenges assumptions, sparks curiosity, and exposes you to perspectives you won’t hear anywhere else.
Co-hosts Mahlon and Jamie are polar opposites—gender, politics, religion, worldview—but after 30+ years of friendship, they’ve mastered the art of tackling tough topics with respect, humor, and a lot of heart.
We don't just talk about the tough stuff—we dig into it. Got a perspective? A question? A challenge? Pull up a chair and join the conversation and be part of something real.

S2 E13: Books, Bans, and Boundaries: Navigating School Censorship
In this episode of Roundtable Mindset, Jamie, Mahlon, and guest Brett dive into the heated issue of book banning in schools. They explore how schools select books for their libraries, the role of parents and the community in challenging those choices, and the influence of today’s political climate on educational content. The conversation tackles tough questions about censorship, the need for diverse perspectives, and the importance of age-appropriate material in education.
Together, the hosts examine the evolving landscape of school libraries, the impact of book rating systems, and the challenges teachers face in balancing parental concerns with providing broad educational resources. They also discuss the vital role of parental involvement, mental health considerations, and the potential for local control in determining what students read. Join this insightful discussion as they seek to find common ground in an increasingly divided debate on censorship, education, and the power of literature.
