The Alun Parry PodcastEp 21: From Murder To Nonviolence
This episode blew my mind. Don’t miss it. I’m talking with John Lash. At 18, he pulled a pistol on someone and shot them dead.
He got a life sentence in a US jail. But inside prison he went on a journey that led him to a passionate belief in the ideas and practices of nonviolence.
In an environment where nonviolence can be risky for fear of being seen as weakness, he started to try these ideas out for real.
He taught them to other prisoners. Now a free man, the id...

David Alnwick is a successful comedy magician. There are many things I admire about Dave. He’s super good at what he does. He is someone who is really up for life. Wherever there’s something fun, there’s Dave. And I’ve always been really struck by how good his social skills are.
His interactions with people always seem so easy. I always put that down to Dave just being Dave. He’s a magician after all. I guess you need those social skills when paid to do close up magic at parties and the like.

Sarah Ludford has spent the last several years of her life immersed in the practice of Non Violent Communication (NVC).
NVC was developed by the inspirational psychotherapist Marshall Rosenberg. He sought to find a way to ensure that we all get our needs met without conflict.

He found that we all have universal needs that we seek to get met. He developed a way of communicating that g...
