In this episode of 'It's a Privilege' podcast, the hosts and two special guests, Peter Tien and John Ockenfels, explore the privilege of travel. Alongside hosts James Tierney and Don Rosenbaum, they discuss personal experiences with travel and its connection to privilege. The segment delves into how travel influences empathy and social perceptions.
The episode then transitions to an in-depth discussion with Peter and John, who undertook a global flight, known as the "Flight to End Polio," to raise awareness for polio. They share riveting stories about their journey, the adversities faced, and the ultimate success of their mission to raise significant funds for polio eradication. The discussion sets the stage for further exploration in the next episode. This is part 1 of a 3-part series.
