This is your front row pass to the world’s most intriguing storytellers, as powered by you.

This week, say hello to Spanish-Australian writer, documentary maker, journalist, and anthropologist Belinda Lopez who embeds herself deep into the world of her stories, from Indonesia, Australia, Europe and Latin America.

In this episode, I sit down with Belinda to roam through the things she’s learnt as a multi-award-winning globe trotting storymaker, and we tackle one meaty conversation starter (sent in by a Substack subscriber) that tips the cap to French existential philosopher Albert Camus: can storytelling prevent civilisation from destroying itself?
