497 -- Putting Together the Puzzle -- with Gary Edgington
When you have a lifetime's worth of experience in the criminal justice and military, you've accumulated some stories. Some are never to be told, due to privacy or intensity or just the inability to speak the words. Others are shifted into fiction, to give space to say what you need to say without quite as many roadblocks...

495 -- Context and Connections -- with Barbara Ann Mojica

Customer Reviews
Transformative conversations!
Transformative conversations. Talking with Kate just makes you smarter! It is no wonder her podcast inspires. Ignorance was bliss? Love that thought.
Unique in all the right ways
Kate brings her real self to the microphone and brings the best out of her guests. By showing real interest in people from all different backgrounds, she sparks some really worthwhile conversations that never feel canned. There’s a reason she’s had such a long run in the pod scene, as you’ll discover if you give it a listen.
Always
I love Kate! Always look forward to episodes and always learn and grow❤️
