[Xmca-l] "Self-awareness, Perspective, and Imagination -- with Huw Lloyd"

[Anthony Barra]

 Huw Lloyd is an interesting guy and a gracious conversation partner.

He recently helped me close some (of the many) gaps in my knowledge and
understanding here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://tiny.cc/4kspsz__;!!Mih3wA!X7YGqw7zcXg6Q2t0d7Fxgiw61TIB9gDb1rcyBIB0fKIeY4I0UnNHoaVgMd-KMLuKDyXZyA$ 

Huw's commentary will likely be enjoyable even for fellow experts, who
could compare his answers to what their own might be, as well as my
questions to what they might've asked.

I do feel a bit weird pushing my stuff here, but at the same time, enough
people have told me in public and private that they enjoy the videos, so I
do like sharing them.

Thanks,

Anthony
