Thank you for this fair-minded and wise conversation!
Wow Aaron, on this of all topics the equanimity and respect-in-dialogue you model is breath-taking. And your guest seemed to do his best on that front as well. TBH I was starting to huff and puff at some of the content your guest was sharing, but your approach to the podcast was like a quiet insistent force in my ears saying 'LISTEN. Give him a fair hearing.' So I did.
Great pod, subbed
hey English, stick to what you know...
