So our amazing executive producer, Lily Percy, has taught me so much about movies across the years

and how movie watching can make for big, deep, fun conversation.

And now she's turned this passion of hers into on-bearing studios new podcast. This movie changed me.

I'm really proud of it. There are new episodes every other Tuesday.

You don't have to have watched the movies in advance, but if you love You've Got Mail or The Nightmare Before Christmas or Star Wars,

you're already ahead. This is a fabulous audio experience. Great thoughts, laughter, a few tears,

and immersive movie music and moments. If you haven't listened yet, it's time.

Then you say, I'm going to have another party next weekend. It's like, I'm sorry.

I'm out of town. It is like, come. Let's talk about white privilege and about it.

I think I'm busy.

John Powell offers new learnings from science as forms of everyday power and brings a refreshing human calling into perspective.

I'm Christa Tippett and this is on being.

John Powell is a legal scholar and director of the Hoss Institute at the University of California, Berkeley.
