This Sunday at TGP Sessions, it’s the Intersections track. (What is Intersections? It’s the track in which we include topics that span two or more of our other tracks.)

This Sunday, we will hear from people who came up with innovative ways to help us deal with the weird world we’ve been living in the last year: a couple of advertising professionals who started a web site which lets locked-down folks go outside their four walls; and a doctor who fought the contagion, not with medicine but by coordinating volunteer efforts to battle the pandemic.

Dear TGPian,

This Sunday at TGP Sessions, it’s time for Fringe & Geekery. (It’s the track in which we include topics that don’t quite fit into the other tracks, but that we find interesting. Topics that aren’t mainstream. People obsessed by something and deeply knowledgeable about it and able to communicate that enthusiasm.)

This Sunday, we will hear from a creative person who is ambidextrous and a fund-raiser about the most important tool in his kit. [Bios in next message]
