Public Interest Podcast wants to Improve the State of the World

Public Interest Podcast consists of conversations with politicians, activists, advocates, and others who seek to improve the world.

Mission:
Public Interest Podcast strives to provide a meaningful and entertaining window into the inspiration and perspiration that drive a diverse array of individuals to advance the public interest. Our hope is that Public Interest Podcast can:
Create stronger positive associations with public service as an attractive and accessible calling for everyone.

Reveal and accentuate our common humanity by creating a platform for positive civil discourse, thereby interrupting a negative cycle of ignorance begetting distrust, begetting fear, begetting hate, and in turn begetting violence.

Empower listeners to perceive the ubiquitous impact of government over our daily lives and illuminate a path for taking ownership of and exerting influence upon one's own community, government, and society.

Fill the vacuum left by the disappearing Fourth Estate (i.e. traditional journalism), especially with regard to local and state issues, thereby increasing informed voter turnout by familiarizing voters with their elected officials.

The purpose of this podcast is to raise the profile of individuals who advance the public interest. I'm hoping to garner more interest in how varied and honorable public service is and I'm trying to provide our community with a new way of accessing those who have taken a stand to improve our community.

The podcast has had tens of thousands of listens and features interviews with cabinet secretaries, major network news anchors, Pulitzer Prize winners, Nobel Prize laureates and candidates, ambassadors to the United Nations, governors, foreign parliamentarians, congressmen, senators, delegates, mayors, councilmen, executive directors of non-profit organizations, and others who seek to improve the state of the world.
