Humbled to be included in such a distinguished lineup and so very grateful to the hosts and organisers. Give it a listen.

This sounds frivolous in the grand scheme of things but we need to support archivists, protect public libraries, protect journalists, writers, artists, photographers, and filmmakers. We need to continue to keep culture alive and educate our youth.
