Send us Fan Mail During the recent International Women’s Day, it was a relief to see more and more women stepping up and speaking up about their frustrations that the needle on equality is not moving, in fact, we’re going backwards.  What is it going to take, really?

Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The Know Show. What a week and definitely a fascinating news cycle, but also an example of how a moment can consume our attention and focus, when so much else is happening. However, sometimes we need a break from the hard news, so we’ll talk about the ‘slap’ but not from a story perspective, instead we’ll discuss how it rolled around the world and our observations of th...

Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The Know Show. Once again, we’ll be focusing on the news that is absorbing the world’s attention and trying to make sense of it, always looking for the positives. We don’t talk about the day-to-day news (there’s enough of that) it’s more focused on the news around the big stories. We are delighted to welcome Avni Martin, who is going to discuss how we think and make dec...

Send us Fan Mail One of the challenges for anyone trying to raise awareness of the climate emergency or the myriad social issues facing humanity is, how do you share this knowledge with people not ready to listen to it?

We’re excited to have Denys Van Rooyen as our special guest this week, a news junkie who will bring a whole diffe...

Send us Fan Mail We are all going through really hard times. Terrifying times if we’re honest. Some are looking the other way, hoping it goes away, but many are paying attention and it’s extremely alarming and overwhelming.

Send us Fan Mail The reason the world is in such a state when it comes to the environment is simple - we have become disconnected from the source of life – the planet which sustains us.

Environmental destruction - caused by deforestation, un...

Send us Fan Mail Self-worth is something so many struggle with. It’s a deep and fundamental belief that you have value in the world, and yet, so many lose it and never get it back.
