Uncommon Courage

The Know Show – where is all the love?

Andrea T Edwards, Joe Augustin, Scott Harrison Episode 131

We celebrated Valentine’s Day this week and messages of love are flooding our social media channels, which is always a nice balm for the soul. However, then you turn on the news and see the shooting in Kansas City during the Super Bowl celebrations, the planned attack on Rafah still going ahead, X taking payment from terrorist organizations, the US reconsidering its relationship with South Africa after taking Israel to the ICJ for genocide, and of course, Trump threatening NATO members if they don’t pay up…. It’s hard to find the love. 

António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, released an article on LinkedIn this week, and it’s a call for peace. Peace in the world. Peace within communities. Peace with justice. Peace with nature. It’s also a call to love and a call to action, for the greater good of all life on earth, and yet our leaders continue to move in the other direction. War is growing, but how can we continue to fight wars today, when the stability and resilience of the earth system is hanging in the balance? Our biosphere is on it’s knees, and yet war and it’s devastation is growing. 

 

We’ve got to turn this all around! That’s just a flavour of some of the news we’ll discuss, so do come and join us and you’ll be up to date with all the major news happening in our world. 

 

To help us dig in, we’re thrilled to have the Culture Catalyst, Scott Harrison join us this week. He’s an ICF performance coach, a leadership, sales and recruitment trainer, mentor, host of the Culture Catalyst Podcast and a professional speaker. We are looking forward to hearing his thoughts. 

 

The Know Show is a Livestream held every fortnight on Friday, where Andrea T Edwards, Tim Wade and Joe Augustin, and at least one special guest, review the news that’s getting everyone’s attention, as well as perhaps what requires our attention. We’ll talk about what it means to us, the world and we hope to inspire great conversations on the news that matters in the world today. 

 

The Know Show is based on Andrea T Edwards Weekend Reads, which are published every Saturday on andreatedwards.com, and covers the planetary crisis, topical moments in the world, global politics and war, business and technology, social issues, and passion/humour/history. Join us.
