This week we plagiarise some content – and have an episode without Tim!  Ben was recently invited to participate in a podcast with the Mission Critical Teams Institute discussing the potential links between creativity and the kinds of people who end up in Mission Critical Teams.  This is an area of significant interest for Ben.  There is an old saying that there are no atheists in a foxhole - while we’re not sure about that, Ben has noticed that there seem to be a bunch of artists in foxholes!  On every deployment he has been on, he has been surprised by the amount of people who start writing poetry, drawing or playing a musical instrument.  This podcast explores some potential links in this regard.

Former Unforgiving60 guest Harry Moffitt chairs the conversation, which includes Ben and Professor Kate Stevens, a cognitive scientist and Professor in Psychology whose work investigates how humans interact with each other, their environment, and with technology. Enjoy!
