A Kross …
the podcast by Tania Kross
At the table are people who set things in motion. Makers, thinkers, builders, working on culture, on education, on vision and nation building. The subjects that have never let go of me in all these years.
How do you live on an island with your eyes on the world? And how does that world look back at us? I talk to international guests, and to islanders who have gone far internationally. What do they dream of? And what turns out, time and again, that we share?
Each episode is named after the guest sitting across from me. The first seven have been recorded.
