Thoughts On Opinion Today w/ Calley N. Anderson

On the latest episode of "Authenticated," Kate is joined by playwright Calley N. Anderson to explore what it means to hold an opinion in an age that has made having one seemingly easier and simultaneously more dangerous than ever before. Their mutual investment in the internal "why's" of life is the tool they share to dig into the architecture of an opinion: why it can never be separated from lived experience, why ego is the thing standing between a good opinion and a great one, and what it costs us when we confuse fact with the illusion of objectivity. Kate and Calley lead with their curiosities in the space between the globe and the spin of it, the panopticon and the performance of self, the "hit dog that hollers" and the person who sits quietly in the resounding of what just landed. Their conversation asks what is getting lost as we develop ourselves in public, whether the digital age has made us more seen or just more surveilled, and why the most honest creative act today might be the one you choose not to share.Show Notes:Calley N.
