Episode notes

The speaker finds hope in the fact that some of the smartest and most respected individuals are fully aware of the world's problems and are approaching them in good faith. They find hope in the brilliant responses to the challenges faced on campuses, coming from unconventional sources across the political spectrum. Despite uncertainties, the speaker sees a positive shift in people opening their hearts to these responses, which gives them hope for the future.

“Founding friend” David French returns to wrap up 2023 (we’re taking a break for a few weeks). He and Curtis look back at the year through the lens of two core spiritual values of The After Party: Humility and Hope. We discuss what happened in 2023 that grew our humility, reminding us of the need to recognize complexity, to grow, and to learn. We also talked up the signs of hope from the year, including many that are hidden or counter-intuitive.
