Support COW - the podcast
Where we are? And are we really stuck? Or might there be ways to move forward?
COW – the podcast, or Can Of Worms, is researched and produced in it’s entirety by host, Ant Biggs who, one day, came to the conclusion that he wanted nothing less than to change the world 🙂 …
Well, it might sound a little ambitious, trying to change the world. But isn’t that the whole point?
So would you like to help? Well then, read on…
Producing COW – the podcast is a full time job.
Each of the podcasts is thoroughly researched before being scripted in order to bring you the very best of what’s out there. Then, there is recording and editing, and then managing the whole thing… social media etc etc.
And despite all of the time invested I’d like to see it go out free to everybody.
This is becoming a thing, in some circles, and sort of holds that with a right to free speech should come a right to free information. The trouble with that of course, is how to make it pay?
As a close friend is wont to say, he has “no need of the money… but the people he owes it to are getting more and more desperate for it”.
So how does this sound?
Does it sound a fair exchange?
Buy me a coffee
And I’ll guarantee to keep it free to all.
Why Philosophy Works, and The Question You Need To Be Asking…
Me, Metaphor and Mind... What philosophy tells us about recent findings in the cognitive sciences and how it makes for an effective self help tool. How individual empowerment opens up freedom of choice and encourages dialogue. And ultimately what we should do about it. The question we could all benefit from answering.
