Peter and Phil's Courageous Conversations

Phil and Peter wrap up their Dad & Daughter Series in honor of Father's Day.  In this episode, they allow their daughters to ask questions and take over the podcast.  Join us for a fun interview that brings GEN X & Z into the conversation. 

In a continuation from last week, Phil starts the discussion by asking how diverse their kids' friend circles are.  Join us as we continue the courageous conversation with daughters Brooke Weinstein, and Nicole Nelson. 

In honor of Father's Day, Peter & Phil get together with their daughters, Brooke Weinstein and Nicole Nelson, to discuss some of their past podcasts, asking them to share their experiences and feelings on racism, inequality,  and social injustice.  Nerves run high in this 3-part series, inviting generations Z & X into another courageous conversation - this time - at their own dinner table!  You won't want to miss it. 

After the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, Peter & Phil take on the issue of mass shootings with semi-automatics.  What's the solution?  Why is Congress so scared to address the issue with laws or to even speak on the matter?  Join us for another courageous conversation! 

After watching a new documentary on slavery, Peter shares concern for the omission of African-American history in our history books.  They say those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it -   what if you were never taught it?  What happens then?  Peter and Phil discuss this topic and more in another courageous conversation.  

After Peter brings up the Roe v Wade issue currently making its way through the Supreme Court, Peter & Phil go into a discussion about the ethics of our choices, and all the layers one has to consider when making hard decisions.  Pet owners have the difficult decision to put their pets to sleep, but just because a decision is potentially difficult, does that mean people should not be given the choice?  Join us, as the two discuss matters of life and death - and the choices we all should have in the matter (or not).  

In this up-close and personal courageous conversation, Peter & Phil discuss the nuclear family.  When Peter shares a painful family secret with Phil it opens up an entirely new conversation on the unintended therapeutic consequence of sharing.  It also reveals a new topic about vulnerability and the true meaning for Peter in terms of 'courageous conversations.'  Join us this week. 

Peter and Phil sit down and talk the Thursday before Mother's Day and pay homage to their mothers.  What's a mother's role and how did Peter & Phils's mothers impact them in their upbringing and where they are now?  Join us this week.  

Peter and Phil have another courageous conversation about the need for debate in our political and justice system.  While Congress and news outlets teeter on the edge of arguments, Peter and Phil point out the need for good sound debates instead.  The discussion eventually leads the two into a debate of their own! Join us this week as we discuss the art of healthy debating, Supreme Court justice nominee Kentaji Brown Jackson, and friendship. 

Phil asks Peter to share how he makes friends and it transforms into a courageous conversation on the foundation of friendship.  Why do we need friends?  What are we looking for in our friendships?  Do political, monetary, and/or social class come into play when choosing your friends?  Join us this week as we discuss friendships and don't forget to stay involved by answering this week's poll!
