Broken-ish

Roman Braly, Christopher Bennett

We’re explorers. Broken-ish is a podcast about exploring the mess of being human - broken systems, messy relationships, divided communities - and the people building something better out of it.

Each week, in 30 minutes or less, we sit down with voices who’ve lived the chaos, challenged the status quo, and are creating change from the ground up.

Hard truths, real conversations, and sparks of possibility from a world that’s a little… Broken-ish.
