Let's Roll: Reflections From Our Nation's Capital
from The People We Meet with Ty Bruner Hosted by Ty Bruner
A chance encounter in the United States Capitol building. A name that sparks an unexpected discovery. And a story of extraordinary courage that still resonates twenty-five years later. In this episode of The People We Meet, a trip to Washington, DC, becomes an exploration of human connection, the power of showing up for one another, and what ordinary people can accomplish together. From the monuments of our nation's capital to the remarkable story of Flight 93, Let's Roll asks a deceptively simple question: What happens when we stop focusing on what divides us and start recognizing why we matter to each other? Sometimes a journey changes more than what we know. It changes what we notice.
