Original Thinkers on Get An Earful

A new festival in Telluride, Colorado promises to give its audience a unique perspective on some of the most critical issues of our time. Called Original Thinkers, the festival aims to leave participants “changed and charged” to make a real difference. Their program includes themes on complicated issues, like the climate crisis from a feminist perspective, unburying shame, and the character of our country. On the extended newscast, we spoke with founder and director David Holbrooke about building a festival around ideas.
