On Becoming a Father and The Invasion of Ukraine
02/28/22 • 34 min
- Mark Fonseca Rendeiro (Rambling when he should be sleeping. )
In a time of so much frustration, confusion and despair – a podcast is always appropriate. Especially when you couple that with the backdrop that this month I also became a father! So much joy on the one hand, so much struggle on the other, and then you have the incredibly unjust world taking another horrible turn. This monologue is the story of the rollercoaster month it has been and the mounting questions that obviously I am not equipped to answer but that doesn’t stop me from trying.
