I was invited by Patrick to join the second episode of his new show “The Phileas Club” the show is described as :

“Very simply put, this show is a monthly audio podcast about what happens in the world.

There is a twist though: rather than having one person give you a monotonous speech about some far away land, we thought it would be more interesting to bring the far away land to you, and let it tell you what has been happening there.
So what we do is this: each month, we gather people from around the world, and ask them what has been making the news in their country, on both local and international fronts. This puts worlds events in very sharp contrast, as it allows the listener to not only hear about important events that might have been underreported in their own country, but it also allows us to learn about how different countries and cultures perceive and interpret the important events of our time.

Ultimately, we hope our show will help people understand each other a little bit more, even in a small way. The first one who says “left wing hearty feely hippy” gets a time out. Seriously though, this “goal” has nothing to do with political colors. Some of us are left wing, some of us are right wing, and some of us don’t really think of it in terms of left or right, because these words mean very different things depending on which part of the world you live in.”

I and the rest of the guests of the show had a good time and an open respectful conversation. So please check it out and let me know what you think.
