My podcast is back!
There are still many things in this world that make my head wanna explode, there are still many things to deconstruct, educate ourselves about, and oftentimes unlearn.
Yet what happened as my podcast was resting? A short answer is a lot.
A long answer includes the continuation of the war in Ukraine, imprisonment of Julian Assange, multiple elections in South America, protests in Iran, floods in Pakistan, and military occupation of Palestine.
These are the topics that I have written about as my podcast was resting (you can find all of them here, on this very same website), and some of them I will be covering in this upcoming season.
So thank you for being here, thank you for being curious and for caring. Let’s do this!
Thank you for sticking around and for caring, and for amplifying the ideas that need that amplification so much!
