Rala & Baby: The Big Idea is a brand new (for now) podcast that comes out of a 5 year friendship of deep collaboration, serious curiosity, and big time American style laughs, the kind that the other people in the restaurant are interested in, one way or another. A lot of times we (Rala and Baby) are having these hours-long conversations about art and life and change and different kinds of nuts and we are thinking, what-we're gunna keep this to ourselves?!?! That's not only a disservice, but it's also unfair. Mostly to us, because we are nothing if not generous, so after we have these great insights, we have to go around repeating ourselves to other people one by one. IT TAKES A LONG TIME. Here it is compiled: some thoughts new, for your viewing and listening pleasure, some thoughts regurgitated while we catch you up. We can't wait to all be on the same page. Thank you for supporting us. We'll get you back someday. Hugs, Kisses, Rala and Baby (AKA Lara Ricote and Abby Wambaugh)

    Episode 4: Plato's Symposium (books)

    It's Rala. It's Baby. It's another Big Idea. Now, today's big idea is Plato's Symposium (up to a point). We also discuss the value of education, politics groups, books we finish, books we abandon, and how pink polo shirt guy is out there changing lives. Also: - Losing two passports - Nora Ephron - Air quotes - Octavia Butler - Lonesome Dove - "You didn't tell him how long to make it" - What the hell are you talking about? - Huge if true - Gossip as a thought experiment - Changing your mind immediately And... Is being curious more important than being right? Is it possible to try on another person's thoughts like a jacket and see what fits? Let's take these ideas for a walk. Hugs, Kisses, Rala, Baby

    Episode 3: Garlic Confit

    Hey! It's Rala and Baby, coming through with another piping hot episode of The Big Idea. If you think you heard us say this is episode 1 a few times, I'm afraid you are mistaken. This is NOT episode 1. This is of course, episode 3. And we're talking about being alone, being understood, being misunderstood, being judged, judging other people and FaceTiming your relatives too much (or maybe exactly enough). Also: - Refusing to close the bathroom door - Moon rituals - Capacity - George W. Bush - American people skills - Danish people skills - Cassava - Cold plunges - Orgasm birth Mostly, though, this is an episode about care. If you think it, and it's kind, do it. Hugs, kisses Rala and Baby

    Episode 1: Heart Propped Open

    Welcome to the first episode of Rala & Baby: The Big Idea. This episode is mostly us trying to explain what this podcast is, but also, so much more! We talk about some pretty BIG things, like a weekend where we made up our own reality, all the games we invented, what it feels like when people are genuinely trying to understand each other, and why asking a stranger a weird question is almost always more interesting than Googling it. Also: - Yoda on the Radio - A grandmother's carrot cake - Honesty Week - Another World Is Possible - Can I yell at you for a minute? - Disco-ball Hobbit costumes - Ovaries (we were doing our best) - Generous London geezers - Italian gelato wizard - Leaving your heart propped open a little bit And you'll hear why we keep making things together, and what happens when you let yourself follow an idea all the way to the end. We're happy you're here. Hugs, kisses Rala and Baby
