Storytelling with equal-opportunity empathy
Manage episode 386256674 series 3341267
Trey Kay knows both sides of America's partisan divide intimately. He was born and raised in a conservative family in Charleston, West Virginia. As a young man he moved to New York City, where he later became a producer on the arts and culture program Studio 360, at WNYC.
These days, Trey splits his time between New York and West Virginia to make Us & Them, an award-winning narrative podcast about America’s culture wars, in partnership with West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
On Us & Them, Trey treats people with respect, he listens carefully to their point of view whether he agrees or not, and he facilitates conversations that might not otherwise happen. A guiding value is empathy – no matter who the interviewee happens to be. This episode was originally published in May 2023.
