In this episode Teresa Norton shares one of her funny newspaper columns from the early 1990's with improv practitioner and proud father Henk van der Steen. They talk about the rapid changes in technology and their shared desire for/reluctance to embrace new gadgets. The conversation covers everything from jet packs and black and white television to smart phones and AI. Henk shares his memories of traveling in Hong Kong and the advancements in technology that shocked him back in the mid-90's, and shares why a charity which supports the rights of the LGBTQ+ community feels important to him as a father. This lively conversation explores the themes of technology, change, the freedom to love who you love and hope.
