  • Episode 33 - After some months...the end of 2023.
    Feb 3 2024

    Apologies for the delay - may we present our final episode of 2023. 

    Josh and Ethen had spent some time apart, reflecting on their lives separately and considering the nature of their own relationship; disputing personal paths, arguing and spending time resolving their qualms. 

    Refreshingly, if not vulnerably honest, the conversation depicts a shared appreciation for the difficulties any close-knit relationship naturally incurs and the effort from one another to see how they might take steps in resolving their disagreements.

  • Learning to surrender to feedback - with great difficulty.
    Sep 18 2023

    Following our individual reflections of this conversation, we release the conversation itself. 

    It had ups and downs, miscommunication, Ethen jumping around with his points, Josh becoming defensive - all the parts of an involved discussion. And we're happy for it to be on display for everyone to consider their feedback.

    So - let the feedback roll!

  • Individual Reflections (of Episode 32 - to come)
    Sep 16 2023

    Proceeding a conversation recorded at a beautiful Lake Kurwongbah, Ethen and Josh reflected on elements of the communication they shared.

    After what was a somewhat 'turbulent' or 'touchy' conversation at times, the fallout provided food for thought and individual elaborations on what they wish to clarify to both one another, and perhaps the world. 

     

    *Apologies for the noise 'plosives' from Ethen's mic - a mic' sock or upgrade is warranted.
