#4.2 WWK Amber Mannie

#5.1 Knowing Chito Vela

Austin City Council member and immigration attorney Chito Vela talks with Patrick about growing up in Laredo, his journey expanding his horizons at UT Austin at the LBJ School and UT Law, his political races, and his current service as representing northeast Austin on the Council. Chito shares his thoughts on how to improve the wellbeing of all who live in Austin and the State of Texas.

WWK Special Edition: Knowing Lev Baesh

Rabbi Lev Baesh and Patrick talk about Judaism, growing up in the spotlight,  public speaking, the nature beautiful moments as unique to people and situations, and finding happiness in life.

#4.2 WWK Amber Mannie

Patrick and Amber talk about education, law, and Amber's journey to finding the good things in life by learning from adversity. Season Four is an attempt to reach Patrick's US Representative Lloyd Doggett, starting with his colleague Kwita Carrington, who nominated Amber, who makes her nomination to get a little closer to Mr. Doggett in this episode.

#4.1 WWK Kwita Carrington

Ms Carrington and I talk about teaching, SXSW, her family's historic roots in Austin, and her early passing connection to Lloyd Doggett when she was a child. Kwita shares her thoughts on what it means to be happy and the importance of family.  This season on Who We Know, we're taking the "conversational game of tag" to a whole new level. Instead of letting our network of connections wander freely across the globe, host Patrick Aziz has a specific "destination guest" in mind: his very own U.S. House Representative, Lloyd Doggett. Can an everyday citizen break through the layers of politics, schedules, and gatekeepers to have a real conversation with their congressperson? Using a six-degrees-of-separation approach, Patrick will attempt to bridge the gap between constituent and representative. Will our experiment lead to an inspiring dialogue or reveal just how hard it is to connect with those in our representative democracy? Follow us and find out!

Knowing Ernie Kaulbach

This is an "out of season" episode to explore connections between religions and ideas and how they may apply to life. I speak with former UT professor of English and Philosophy Dr. Ernest Kaulbach, who talks about his life growing up in 1950s New York, becoming a scholastic, teacher, and still figuring out life as he approaches 90 years old. He has never been moderate in his word choice, so be aware this episode is NSFW, for language.
