Acerca de esta escucha

In an internet era characterized by comment section wars, devastating clapbacks, and anonymous vitriol, Dylan Marron explores what happens when online feuders step out from behind the keyboard and get to know the human on the other side of the screen. Join Dylan as he connects people who have clashed online – from old friends to complete strangers — to explore why we believe what we believe, how we relate to each other on the internet, and just what a phone call can accomplish. Don’t be fooled by the title! It’s actually a loving show that fosters unlikely connections in an age of increasing digital isolation. Whether Dylan is speaking with someone who wrote him a negative comment or is moderating a call between two strangers at odds, the results are often surprising, usually heartwarming, and always compelling.

    It’s 1999, and sixteen years after its original release, a new Star Wars is finally coming. Fans have been camping out in front of theaters across the country just to be the first to see it. The beloved intergalactic saga is set to debut a slew of brand new characters, one of whom is a revolutionary CGI creation named Jar Jar Binks. Whispers begin to spread about big changes coming to the galaxy far, far away – and not everyone’s happy about it. Transcripts for The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks are available at go.ted.com/jarjar

  • NEW PODCAST: Introducing The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks

    NEW PODCAST: Introducing The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks
    May 4 2023
    Jar Jar Binks became one of the most polarizing figures in cinematic history when he made his debut in Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace in 1999. He was even named “the most annoying movie character of all time” by Complex Magazine. After the release, Ahmed Best, the man who played Jar Jar, was hit with the full force of the backlash — and it nearly destroyed him. The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks is a six-part journey through the early internet to understand how one of the first-ever online hate campaigns began, and to right what we got so wrong about Jar Jar the first time around. Coming June 28 from the TED Audio Collective. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

It's so refreshing to hear a discussion where people listen to one another and are respectful even while disagreeing. They should teach this skill in every school in America.

The world needs more people like this guy

This podcast is beautiful as well as eye-opening. Dylan Marron speaks with compassion and intelligence and tho I'm not finished the entire podcase, many of the messages & episodes stay with me hour after hour...

Excellent Observations

Dylan Marron is a compassionate, sincere man who has taken on the daunting task of building a bridge of understanding with the olive branch of peace in the face of bigotry and ignorance. His open honesty, empathy, and tactfully gental interview skills are truly inspiring.

Each episode is a single conversation with an individual who chose to sling insults and death threats simply because they opposed an opinion unaligned with their world view. Through finding common ground and building trust, two very different people are able to reach a place of understanding. Though they may walk away with their opinions unchanged, their eyes are opened, and ears are listening. Each is more aware of the world outside their domain and willing to remember that there are humans on the other side of that screen.

At the end of each episode, I, too, reflect on the moments I'm driven to cringe or mutter with frustration and outrage. These are human emotions born of a moment in the journey of understanding. I have to face my own demons with empathy and how for the seeds of love and understanding that Dylan's project plants can flourish and grow into a forest of tolerance and understanding.

A Fascinating Window to the Human Experience
