Explainer: We’re “Almost There”

by Dwayne Betts

A podcast about the original thinkers and unexpected ideas that could remake our world.

On Almost There, a new podcast from Emerson Collective, poet and lawyer Dwayne Betts talks to creative problem solvers, all Fellows at Emerson Collective—architects, doctors, writers, voyagers, organizers, artists—whose ideas could remake our world. In each episode, we’ll learn about the unpredictable journeys that have led them to the big questions driving their work: How do we keep our families and communities healthy? How do we strengthen our schools, build a fairer immigration system, and create a more resilient American democracy? How can we stay alert to the beauty around us, and harness human ingenuity to protect our planet? Questions this big don't have easy answers, but the conversations on Almost There will point us to the surprising paths forward.
