Astounding podcast. In an area that has become so divisive and where debate on both sides can be passionate but not necessarily well informed, this podcast is a breath of fresh air. Simon and Rachel between them have the nuanced conversations others are afraid to have, but do it in a way that holds the space for multiple perspectives. Extremely informative, highly relevant and a great listen too!
Thanks so much for all of the feedback and episode suggestions you have sent us. A favourite is still “informative and funny” as we try to meet evidence, practice and leadership dilemma with human impact and humour. Please do leave a review here - the great, the good and the areas for improvement. And any topics you would like us to cover in the show. Thank you.
The two hosts are fantastic - experienced, funny, insightful and they spark off each brilliantly. A mixture of sense, lessons drawn from real-world examples, and some quite controversial but articulately reasoned views. Great stuff.
It’s possible to discuss honestly without labelling another as ‘evil’.
