It's a special feeling when you understand something for its essence. It's visceral, it's real and it's rare. But it is true. This podcast is a journey in understanding.

His interests and experience are broadly in the areas of archaeology, landscape, architecture and urbanism of North America and Europe, with a broad specialty in the architecture and urbanism of the Mediterranean Basin between the 4th-15th centuries.

    #7 - Prof. Richard Kearney: Where do Stories Come From?

    Prof. Dr. Richard Kearney is very well published and regarded Professor in Philosophy, a public Intellectual and writer. He is the Charles Seelig Professor in Philosophy at Boston College, has taught at University College Dublin and is a member of the Royal Irish Academy. In this conversation, Prof. Kearney walks me through his understanding of Narrative, and how and why stories have come to be so important to the human experience. Drawing strongly on both his Gaelic roots, and a thorough understanding of story-telling traditions across cultures, Prof. Kearney guides me through two lines of argument: 1. Why the un-narrated life is not worth living; and 2. A vouch for the return to touch, and the connection-dense experience of life. Speaking of dense, this conversation is very much so in information-per-minute. A lot of important ideas about the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, both as individuals and groups, are explored. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation, and seeing that I struggled to keep up in some places, it’s safe to say I was definitely stretched into new waters. A very exciting prospect.

    #1 - Richard Archbold - The Hidden Art of Creativity

    Arch (aka Richard Archbold) isn't just designing buildings—he's shaping the way we experience space. With extensive experience in the industry, and a principal at JWA Architects, Arch has played a key role in some of New Zealand's high-profile commercial projects. Practicing meticulous, context- driven approach to design, Arch has also been a teacher, story-teller, musician and mentor. Self-described to be at the "end of the beginning" of his career, Arch is considered and rigorous, in both, his practice and communication. I thoroughly enjoyed this most interesting conversation, and I hope you will too.

    Rajan Hira is a Registered Architect, Senior Principal and Father.There’s something quietly powerful about speaking to someone who holds the line between excellence and empathy— making you feel safe and seen, but still pushed to be everything that you could be.In this conversation, I sit down with Rajan Hira, Senior Principal at Chow:Hill, to explore the architecture of care. Our 2+ hour discussion is wide ranging, exploring what makes a rewarding career, the art of raising a young family whilst achieving professionally, dealing with recessions and lay-offs and more. A philosophy toward crafting a career, you want to lead. This was a special one.
