Description

Misinformation! PC Culture! The Snowflake Generation! This podcast is my response to claims that you can't say "anything" these days - because we all know it's crap!

Each episode has a new guest and topic, so you never know what you'll find! The link between all the episodes is our delivery: I believe that no conversation is off limits, as long as you speak from the right place. I want to be better educated on everything our generation cares about, so this podcast is my invitation for those in the know to spread their side of discussions.

Welcome back! Here's a lil update on the episodes shortly coming your way from series 3, where I'm exploring the value of integrity as a skill and an ethos in daily life.
