Travis Misurell, founder of FiNC

Why does politics feel broken — no matter who’s in power?

In this episode of Common-X, we talk with Travis Misurell, founder of FiNC, about the real reason democracy isn’t working — and why arguing Left vs Right keeps us trapped.

Travis introduces a powerful new lens: power-first vs people-first, revealing how money, media, and gatekeeping quietly decide who gets seen, heard, and elected.

This conversation isn’t about parties or ideology.
It’s about upgrading the system itself.
