The value of listening in
Amelia Newcomb
My dad and I used to go to museums together a lot. And I鈥檇 notice that when he鈥檇 start to share his views on a piece of art, people around us would often discreetly inch closer.
That鈥檚 what I did as I listened to Gail Russell Chaddock and longtime Moscow correspondent Fred Weir discuss Fred鈥檚 recent story about a Canadian family who decided to leave Saskatchewan to farm instead in Russia. What was the appeal of President Vladimir Putin鈥檚 recent invitation to people from Western countries deemed 鈥渦nfriendly鈥� to immigrate? Take a moment to listen to today鈥檚 鈥淲hy We Wrote This鈥� podcast 鈥� you won鈥檛 have to eavesdrop, and you鈥檒l leave with an enriched sense of the world.
