Thursday Night Catch Up!

Whether it's an algorithm, personal interest or some other worldly direction, some days the zeitgeist pulls one's thoughts towards particular directions. One of the things that drew us together was our penchant for sharing those top of heart and mind topics, digging deep into stories that are not always pleasant and happy, and basically examining the human condition. On this episode, as we do with most, we present you with topics we are keen to delve into and raise up consciousness about. Please see links below for either the podcast or news references; and a TRIGGER WARNING, Some of the topics we explore may be disturbing, but we hope you feel supported in exploring them with us.
