Blue Hoosier is a civic media brand built in Indiana for Hoosiers who are tired of being told they have to hate half their neighbors.

We believe honesty and integrity in public life aren't partisan values. They belong to everyone. So we created Bud and Harvey — two Hoosiers who see the world differently, sit across from each other anyway, and model the kind of conversation the rest of us have forgotten how to have.

No outrage. No finger-pointing. Just two guys in a diner being honest with each other.

That's the whole idea.
