We are excited to announce that Outrage + Optimism is now part of the TED Audio Collective. This news represents an exciting continuation of the collaboration between our organizations, which began with our strategic partnership with TED Countdown.

The TED Audio Collective is a curated collection of podcasts sharing ideas on a range of subjects, including psychology, business, and design. On TED Climate you’ll hear talks from some of the leading minds in the field on crisis solutions, challenges, and insights that give listeners the information and hope we need to keep fighting.

You can view the full list of TED Audio Collective podcasts here, and listen to them wherever you get your podcasts.

Christiana’s Selection

I wouldn't call this selection my favorites - I have such appreciation for every conversation and every guest we've had on the podcast that choosing five for this listening journey is an impossible task. Rather these are a few episodes that have touched me deeply and that I would love to share with you. Enjoy!
