https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3VqE2HKl-9oNDnhz_xP9dg26 min - Papa Kumarhia
The Story with Charu is back with all new stories this season - starting with a fresh interview with Pradeep Kumarhia.
I last saw him in late February when we went to Atlanta to see the newest grandchild. Covid-19 was starting to show up across the country and sadly we have not been able to see family in person since then. I wait and worry and sometimes I freak out thinking the worst.
Enjoy this interview with Papa - where we talk about a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Happy Belated Father’s Day to all the dads out there - we love you and we need you.

A few hours drive north of Charlotte, North Carolina is a quiet place over the crest of a hill, off a gravel road called The Well of Mercy, or by those who are lucky enough to have visited “The Well.”

In this interview, journalist Charu Kumarhia talks to Jane Motsinger, Sandra O’Brien and Sister Donna Marie Vaillancourt about the amazing things that come to be when one can just be still.

When lawyer Lindsey Williams gave up the pressures of her corporate job to pursue one of her passions (wine) - she had no idea that a global pandemic might cause a disruption. Her small business has had to adapt like so many and shift to online ordering and curbside pickup. In my interview with her she talks about the urban winery concept.

About The Story with Charu
From the publisher's feed
What are the stories we are told and what are the stories we believe? In most newsrooms across the world there is a morning meeting where reporters discuss the most important stories of the day and…
which ones to put resources into covering. We live in a time where information comes at us fast. It’s hard to take a breath or know what to trust. Knowledge is power, and when you know better you do better. I want to explore the questions we need to be asking, the stories we need to hear and what exactly is the truth.
