SEASON 1 - JONTY

I wanted my second interviewee to be someone controversial who not everyone may agree with, yet someone confident enough to let their ideas loose without holding back. This description fitted my good friend Jonty who has very unique political views and a very unique take on current events. This interview gave me a lot more respect for people who are 100% open about their views and also taught me a lot about how different events can have different impacts on different people.

SEASON 1 - GABE

For my first interviewee, I wanted to get someone who did not conform to the traditional ideals of society, someone who would be able to give me some thought provoking answers on a number of controversial social issues while still knowing bits and pieces about general politics. Instantly, I thought of my good friend Gabe who is a member of the LGBT community, I came from this talk feeling very moved and my personal views on the LGBT situation have certainly been modified.
