Walking Alongside: Perspectives
Welcome to Walking Alongside: Perspectives. Take a walk with me as we explore perspectives that I find interesting, moving, ridiculous, hilarious, infuriating, frustrating or down right bizarre! This iteration of the podcast features a combination of short (read 10-15 minutes'ish or less) solo-pods sharing what I have seen, heard, experienced or am navigating and fun and insightful conversations with cool people. Hopefully it will be relatable, possibly humourous, thought provoking or at the very least, entertaining. Looking forward to sharing these perspectives and hope you enjoy.

I was going to use all kinds of cool and heroic music for this...but somehow I got lost in the message and David and Tina's songs completely escaped the sieve that is my mind these days. But it's okay. I also almost talked myself out of this episode because I thought maybe it's too controversial, too political. But if not now then when? Now is the time for everyone to take a long, hard look around and decide if this is the world that we want to live in. And if it isn't, and we have lots of examples of what could happen if we just stick our heads in the sand and hope it all sorts itself out, well, the question is, what are we going to do about it?
So in the spirit of wanting to inspire mostly myself to do what needs to be done on a daily, if not minute by minute basis, this is the episode that I decided to go with for better or for worse...and it's even early!
This is the video that Jeremy mentioned if you are interested in seeing what that guy has to say about taxes...it's worth the watch. https://youtu.be/rAb_p5DCC3E
Here is V for Vendetta if you aren't familiar...https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0434409/
And if somehow you have managed up to now to avoid watching Wall-E...https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910970/
It'll be up to you to find out where to stream those...good luck and enjoy:)

Walking Alongside is written, recorded and produced by me - Charissa McKay (aka CharCharBinx) in my awesome basement home office/studio/craft room on Treaty 6 lands known originally as amiskwaciy-wâskahikan, meaning Beaver Hill House, in Nehiyawewin (Cree). There are other names, equally as meaningful, and I am grateful to those who were here before me, for the ability to call this place my home.
