We are Believers is a project run by Daria Hackenberg and Hollis P Monroe. This podcast is rooted in philosophical theory, as well as real world practice, to be affirmed or challenged throughout our conversations. We are believers in ideas, people, and the power of love. We are not trying to change your mind. We only express what we believe as we do not claim to know. Along the way, we try to show how wonderful you are, in case you forget it and share with you our doubts and wonderings. Disagree? Have a better point? Have some other interesting topic or question? Write us a message!
