Book 3 of Penguin's Green Ideas. And it does. Kinda. But what this episode is really about is how books are like time machines. They transport you (back) to places you didn't expect to go; but are glad you did. For me, that place was Westminster Bridge, October 2019....

The Truth in TenS01 E10: CONDUCTING AUDIENCESHow Do You (Really) Connect With An Audience? This episode focuses on the hero in every good story: The audience.
