Cricket Time
How do we have authentic conversation and debate? How do we address questions that we all have? There will be many unanswered questions. There will be silence. This is Cricket Time. Join our weekly podcast, drawing from a decade of conversation, ranging from history, politics, culture—unscripted and off-the-cuff—as we present our authentic selves, and our thoughts about the state of the world. It’s a process of unlearning. We’ll be wrong a lot and admit when we don’t know, but that’s OK: that is how we learn. We’ll research evidence and discuss new findings. We ask that you please join our discussion by commenting on social media with different topics for us to discuss. Each episode is an opportunity for growth. Think critically, be wrong, and laugh about it. In these unprecedented times, let yourself be wrong and question your beliefs to discover who you are, through the art of conversation. Let’s discover together.
