About Open Circle Talks · North Park, San Diego
Nadia Ferreira spent nine years producing talk radio and left because the format had one flaw she could not design around: the audience never gets to answer back. Open Circle is what she built instead.
Every evening opens with somebody who genuinely knows the subject and then gets out of the way. Half of them run in a room in San Diego and half over video, and the rule is the same on both: it is capped at the number of people who can all say something.
Known for
- Capped small enough that everyone speaks
- Experts who will say what they do not know
