Welcome back.You’re listening to the Political Empathy Lab podcast where connecting with people across difference by listening with heart and mind guided us across Pennsylvania this summer. In Episode 2 of the Political Empathy Lab podcast, "Jumping Right In: Strategies for Connection," members of the research team discuss Political Empathy Lab’s strategies of connection, an approach to engaging with new people and building trust to have more substantive conversations. We begin with the story of a frog and a minnow, and what it’s like to venture into the unknown. The students discuss the beginning of their research experience and the practical steps they developed to initiate productive conversations about politics with strangers.
