Are your agricultural messages truly reaching the people they’re meant for?

In this episode, Sharon Nkwah opens up a much-needed conversation around communications in agricultural development. While many NGOs and international development teams are doing powerful work across Africa, the message often gets lost — not due to lack of effort, but lack of alignment.

From missed audiences to overlooked behaviors, we explore the subtle but important barriers that limit the reach and relevance of agricultural projects.

You’ll learn:

  • Why one-size-fits-all messaging doesn’t work in agriculture

  • The importance of understanding context, channels, and communication behaviors

  • How real engagement starts with real insight

  • What we’re building at Let’s Talk Agriculture LLC to help organizations bridge the communication gap

If you’ve ever wondered why your outreach feels off — or how to build stronger engagement across your agri-projects — this episode will give you a better path forward.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
