Maybe America needs a mom to call a big time-out

About this episode

Meet Tami, a Utah special-ed teacher, Mormon Tabernacle singer and mom of five who launched a civility index web site to grade America’s politicians. And then had to take it down because of comments we will say weren’t remotely civil.

She’s not the first. A decade ago, a Georgia evangelical Republican and Jersey Jewish Democratic attack dog didn’t have any luck with a civility pledge either.

And we will introduce you to a brave Member of the British Parliament who won the UK’s first national civility award.
