I'm bet this was fascinating. I appreciate knowing about him so I can find his book(s). Those of us who are hard of hearing miss out when information is posted in the form of videos without CC or in podcasts. Perhaps we can work on the idea of transcripts some day.

Hi Malcolm. Most of my interviews do have transcripts. Check out the Transcripts page at www.shrinkrapradio.com/transcripts. Nobody has stepped up to transcribe the Malidoma interview yet but it could happen down the road.
Thanks for letting me know.
