Interesting Intellectual Takes
Oops, in case it gets published, I accidentally hit ‘send’ on a previous unfinished review...
By the title, you might expect a podcast about local happenings in Berthoud, CO. Instead, you’ll get Amie’s take on current affairs that impact us. Amie takes on topics such as BLM and the current pandemic. She doesn’t simply report or take sides on the issues, rather she offers tools to help individuals process how to objectively cope with the impacts of such issues. I like that the episodes are short, well thought-out and calmly delivered.
Just what we need.
An intelligent, rational voice of comfort and encouragement in these trying times. Amie is a real strength of our Berthoud community. Thank you for this look in a mirror, Amie!
