{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Conversations from Here...","slug":"conversationsfromhere","podcastDescription":"Welcome to Conversations from Here with me Dana Ziegler. These candid, unfettered talks create connection and inspiration across the human story. These are the sharings of how we came to be ourselves, how we found our life’s purpose and how we made it from there to here. I speak with performers, artists, artisans, creators, innovators, entrepreneurs and other remarkable people about what they do and how they came to do it. Also, the music you hear on this show is performed, as always, by Brad Watson.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/8500467/Conversations_from_Here_Thumbnail_14008ybmt.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/8500467/Conversations_from_Here_Thumbnail_14008ybmt_1200x628.jpg?s=7254c7480292a5d890019b07a5aa0825&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://conversationsfromhere.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/conversationsfromhere/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-pf6j4-81b4f3?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":11,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-06:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-6,"text":"(GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/Chicago"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":49,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Dana Ziegler","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-pf6j4-81b4f3-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conversations-from-here/id1528249094","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-pf6j4-81b4f3?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7KxXNxWg5yAMY73kSqR3HG","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b82375e1-626d-4bb2-b45b-6aeaed651608","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#ff6d00"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"

In this special episode, I grapple with an issue that is front and center in our nation today. There has been such divisiveness and polarization over this that I wanted to speak to it. This is a very serious and difficult conversation-- a most adult topic-- so please, keep the kids out of the room. Thank you for listening!
