My name is Alice Long, and I've always known I was different. When I was little I used to climb up to the highest branches of the housetree at night, and watch the starships docking at the orbital stations high above. Forty meters off the ground, watching ships 30,000 kilometers overhead, with senses that could pick out radar pings and comm chatter as easily as the ships themselves. It all seemed perfectly natural at the time.

The podcast for people who f**king love packaging, and for those that are about to fall in love with the career. Each episode I sit down with people from across the packaging industry — engineers, brand folks, graphic designers, and suppliers — to talk about how they got hooked on packaging… and why they stayed. We talk about the projects they’re proud of, the ones that nearly broke them, and the compromises they fought for. This isn’t corporate speak. This isn’t polished marketing fluff. This is honest conversation about why packaging matters way more than most people realize.

What happens when authorities you venerate condone something you know is wrong? What does this mean about what you’ve been venerating? No issue brings this question into starker contrast than slavery. Every major religion and philosophy condoned or approved of it, but in modern times there is nothing seen as more evil. Americans confront this crisis of authority when they erect statues of Founding Fathers who slept with their slaves. And Muslims faced it when ISIS revived sex slavery, justifying it with verses from the Quran and the practice of Muhammad.
