Because we all desperately need to learn to listen - to each other, to our own sense of wellbeing, to the planet. What could be more important than that right now?
Next week we launch our new website - our chance to introduce our mission and work to the wider world.

Now, more than ever, we must push for a world where the value of listening is fully appreciated and recognised.

Are you ready to be part of our journey?

I asked Vladimir Putin: “25 years ago Yeltsin handed you power & told you 'Take care of Russia.’ Do you think you have? In light of significant losses in Ukraine, Ukrainian troops in Kursk region, sanctions, inflation…” Here’s his reply. Producer

I didn't have "American auto maker backs German fascists" on my 2020s bingo card.

I had it on my 1920s one, though. #afd #musk

Really happy to discover that there is a football team in La Paz, Bolivia, called "Club The Strongest". You need to have a certain level of confidence to pull that off

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.”

She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line.

By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year.

Numbers are fun.
