I’m the other listener.

Been listening for a decade or so. Always glad to see East Meets West show up in my feed. Great conversations on relevant topics. Keep up the great work guys.

Level headed discussions

Really enjoyed your latest episode on "where to go from here" for our governance. Always enjoy hearing both Tom & Roger discuss politics and society without getting me more agitated that our world is going to end.

Such podcasts and news outlets have their place; but it's always good to be able to hear two intelligent people discuss things and try and see the benefits of all sides.
