From Dirt We Grow cuts through the chaos to confront the critical issues shaping our world. This podcast is a platform for deep, unfiltered conversations about the challenges we face as a society—government accountability, systemic inequality, cultural divisions, and the fight for meaningful change.
We Don't Hate Each Other. We Just Stopped Talking To Each Other.
What if America isn't actually as divided as we think it is?
Wesley Warshawer is a Fulbright Scholar, finance professional, and lifelong traveler who has spent years stepping outside the environments that shaped his worldview. At 19, a semester studying abroad in India changed the way he saw the world. Years later, his scholarship took him to South Korea, where he studied alongside hundreds of students from dozens of countries. Wesley gave up his apartment, sold most of his possessions, and spent more than 18 months driving through rural and conservative America while working remotely—followed by another three years traveling through Latin America and Africa.
And what he discovered challenged one of the biggest narratives surrounding America: Maybe we're not as divided as we think we are.
In this conversation, we're talking about what happens when we leave our bubbles, meet people who don't think like us, and become willing to get uncomfortable enough to actually listen. Are Americans really as divided as we're told? What do we have in common that we rarely talk about?
Sometimes the first step toward finding common ground is simply being willing to step outside the comfort of our own tiny bubble.

The Gender Divide - Uncomfortable Conversations Part 5
For generations, we've been handed expectations about what it means to be a man, what it means to be a woman, how we're supposed to behave, what roles we're supposed to fill, and even whose voice deserves to be heard. But how much of what we consider "normal" is actually natural—and how much was taught to us?
In Part 5 of Conversations We Avoid, we're talking about the gender divide and the uncomfortable questions surrounding it.
We'll dig into gender inequality in the workplace, education, leadership, authority, and everyday life. We'll talk about stereotypes, double standards, respect, and the assumptions we make about people before we ever take the time to understand them. And we'll also step into one of the most contentious parts of the conversation: gender identity—and why conversations about it so often turn into battles instead of opportunities to understand one another.
This isn't about declaring one gender the winner. It's about asking why these divisions exist, where they came from, who they affect, and whether we're willing to question the rules we've inherited.
Because if we're serious about closing the divide, we have to be willing to talk about the things that make us uncomfortable.
