A series of Podcasts that look at aspects of life on The Pale Blue Dot (aka our planet Earth). Thoughtful and thought-provoking, always looking to stimulate thought and to start a conversation. Stories and experiences from my life mixed with observations on life. Sometimes dark sometimes uncomfortable, often raw and honest. Questions are posed but not always answered. Much is looked at though the lens of the concept of our planet being just a Pale Blue Dot in space. This concept was originated by Author and Astronomer, the late Carl Sagan, and is based on a picture taken by the Voyager 1 Spacecraft that showed our planet as just a tiny pale blue dot caught in a ray of light. It highlighted the insignificance of us on a universal scale, and is a way of putting some of our behaviours into a perspective of our true place in the Universe. Lessons learned and lessons not learned, personal experiences, life observations. Hoping to make people reach out, start a conversation and to think a bit more about themselves and their behaviours.
