Walking on Eggshells: The Problem with Modern Conversations

The Jocular Pugilists

In this episode, Tomas and Phil delve into the complexities of navigating modern conversations. Inspired by witty and poignant observations of Monty Python legend John Cleese, they explore how overly sensitive individuals can make honest and spontaneous dialogue about politics, religion, relationships, and delicate personal choices difficult and uncomfortable.
Learn about the art of managing difficult conversations, the balance between being true to oneself and respecting others' feelings, and recognizing when it’s just not worth the fight.
Let us know what you think.
