Humanity Is with Uzma Jafri & Zaiba Hasan
Come to the Table
When I was given the chance to interview Uzma Jafri and Zaiba Hasan, the hosts of the Mommying While Muslim Podcast, I jumped at the opportunity. After listening to the podcast, finding out I grew up 4 years apart and in the same school district as Uzma and getting the chance to talk to them my perspective is no longer the same. This conversation and their spirit are why podcasts go beyond a place to learn stuff. You get to hear the hearts and minds of your fellow human beings.

A Love Story with Michael and Cici Owen
Come to the Table
Michael and Cici met in jail. There unconventional beginning was par for the course as they navigated their past with the amazing present and future of a harmonious and complimentary love for each other. From the early days of the podcast I would get an email from Michael after each show with commentary. I really loved hearing from him and after learning more about he and Cici nothing made more sense to me than having them on to talk about it.

One of the most amazing and beautiful things about being involved in the podcast world is connecting with other people on such deep and personal levels. Sometimes you become very fortunate and get a chance to know them personally with the ultimate reward of referring to them as friend.
No other podcast over the past couple of years has had a greater impact on me personally than the Nomad Podcast. Tim, David, Jemimah, Nick and Dave have a special place in my heart and mind. Tim and David have also become friends and we even had David on this show previously.
When invited we quickly said yes.
In regard to the content I haven’t listened and no doubt would not agree with 100% of everything that is said but the very essence of this show and what has been the first step in transformation is to, stop, and listen. So we invite you, regardless of your position, to hear this chorus of voices (actual show notes below) within the motto of our show:
Love in action is listening to understand, not to react.
Everybody Now
Climate Emergency and Sacred Duty
We’ve caused a turning point in the Earth’s natural history. Everybody Now is a podcast about what it means to be human on the threshold of a global climate emergency, in a time of systemic injustice and runaway pandemics. Scientists, activists, farmers, poets, and theologians talk bravely and frankly about how our biosphere is changing, about grief and hope in an age of social collapse and mass extinction, and about taking action against all the odds.
