Crosstalk Listeners Stand on Their Soapbox

Regarding today's SOAPBOX (?) Perhaps you're not familiar with the terminology of getting out a soapbox; a platform to stand on in a crowd in which to make a speech. Often times it served for politics, but originates from the times in which speakers would elevate themselves above the ground by standing on a wooden crate that was used for the shipment of soap or other dry goods from a manufacturer to a retail store. Though soapboxes are not plentiful today, CROSSTALK (with the analogy), allows listeners to comment on whatever concerns them.  The issues of impeachment, atheism, California fires, transgenderism, Sandra Merritt, Christian persecution, Halloween and many other subjects are discussed.
