Pub Talk with Ann Stephens: Recent Episodes

Ann Stephens

Is it important for others to share my beliefs? If they have differing opinions on politics, religion, or anything else is it important for me to know what that is? Do I care? Do I want to know? Why does it even make a difference?

When we make an effort to know and understand one another it creates a respect and empathy that makes us better humans. When we are better humans we are able to show kindness and love to others.

Your host, Ann Stephens, will walk through this interview style podcast as she invites on guests from all backgrounds and professions. Being a preacher's kid herself with a background in sociology and seminary - Ann noticed a gap in discussions when questions of 'why' or 'how' came up in conversation - and therefore, this podcast was born.

In the Pub Talk Podcast we invite people share their beliefs and convictions. We believe this facilitates a society of kindness and compassion. Our desire is to make a positive impact on our world one person and one conversation at a time.
