Following the global movement of outrage, heartbreak and ‘Black Lives Matter’ protests after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Alan, Greg and Scott talk about what they’re learning about systemic racism, justice and what it means to be allies to those who are victims of oppression. This episode is called ‘The First Of Many Conversations’ because we’re conscious that three white men talking about race is nobody’s ideal and that, though we want to speak up rather than be silent, we’re committed to using our (small) platform to amplify those whose voices the world needs right now. We hope this will be the first of many such conversations that will include people of colour and others from marginalised groups. As we mention in the show, you may find it more helpful to listen to our interview with author and activist Lisa Sharon Harper in Episode 167 which you can find here.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
