#9 30 April 2021
In this episode we spend the entire time in the Big (and we mean BIG) Conversation where the group discuss whether or not we have a moral obligation to help someone in distress, and if we should have a legal obligation. This week's conversation was inspired by this tragic story that took place just down the road from us. We welcome Callie and Rahel on to the Realist, and close out with Rachel's reflections.
This week's The Realist was recorded IN PERSON again as our sessions have returned IRL and so is a little bit echoey.
