And that's what I've continued to do with my 14, 15 shows since then with all of my nonprofit work, with all of the other things I do with my production company, Intuitive Content, is we try to keep people curious and bring ideas out into the forefront of American culture that may be buried or come from somewhere else that people may not want to hear about.
