© 2024 In The Middle - Josiah and Renee
Description
We all have a different opinion, not one of us is the same but so often we come into unhealthy debates, disagreements and divides in our society. What if we told you two good mates could be so different in their values, beliefs and lifestyles yet still get along well?
Inspired by the divide and cancel culture that is happening within our current world, each week we will be exploring and debating topics that society is puttin’ down.
In this podcast, we will discuss, debate and talk about our opinions on things that are impacting both ours and the lives around us. We will hear each other out and see whether we can meet in the middle… or if we remain stuck and strong in our own values.
Join radio anchor Josiah https://www.instagram.com/josiahshala/ and vegan entrepreneur and radio producer Renee https://www.instagram.com/renee_buckingham/
each week.
