Thankful that colleagues like Muffy Potter, Trudi-Ann Tierney, Leena Alam, Max Walker (and many others that I am probably not aware of) continue to do what they can for Afghan artists and film professionals now at-risk following the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan.

Thank you for providing your voice here Muffy.

I knew many of those killed and injured by the Taliban in this attack. I miss you Javed and Mehri. ❤️

Dear Friends and Colleagues.

At the top of 2022, I want to take a moment and look back on the second year The Ask Podcast.

Reflecting on the second year of my podcast, I am again deeply grateful to every guest that showed up to take my questions on The Ask.

And I remain grateful to anyone that tuned into the episodes I have published so far, without you listeners this podcast could not exist. Thank you again for your time and interest in The Ask.

Looking ahead to this New Year, I am excited to continue to seek out extraordinary people and ask them the kind of questions that can provide you, the listener, with captivating answers.

I am not sure where we will go next on The Ask but I pledge to continue to try and produce episodes that entertain, captivate and inspire.

I look forward to inviting Co-Hosts such as my friend and colleague Cliff W. Gilmore, PhD for future episodes of The Ask and experimenting with the presentation and storytelling in the months ahead.

See you soon in the next episode of The Ask. ^_^
