Though provoking

I had the honor to be featured on the 38th episode. These two brothers not only asked some thought provoking questions, but throughout several moments during our interview I felt myself learning more about myself, and my work. Great stuff!

Conversations

I loved the chance to talk with such an intelligent (and history loving!), down to earth, and earnest pair, who are committed both to social justice and to doing the hard work—intellectually, emotionally, and socially—that it takes. They take care of their guests and effortlessly manage to draw out the best. I’m now also a subscriber and am looking forward to listening to many more episodes. Keep up the great work!
