About Us

Middle Minded was founded by two longtime friends, Dave Gabine and Peter Bogdanov — a frontman and a drummer who first connected through music and found a deeper bond through fearless conversation. Over the years, they debated politics, culture, and the future of America, discovering that real progress doesn’t happen on the extremes — it happens in the middle.
Focus
Today, they bring that spirit to Middle Minded, a working man’s podcast built for America’s middle class. Peter, a former liberal who left the left in search of deeper truths, and Dave, a proud progressive who believes in reforming from within, offer a rare kind of dialogue — bold, unscripted, and rooted in respect.
At a time when division seems louder than unity, Middle Minded is on a mission to rebuild the lost art of common ground. We believe the real strength of America lies not in the headlines, but in the honest voices of everyday people. Our goal is to inspire thought, bridge divides, and remind America that the middle is where real progress begins.
