The Real Question is a show that holds space for life’s tough questions. Each episode, a guest brings a personal question they’re grappling with, and Chaplain Mauricio Bruce helps them find an answer. This season, our focus is on future-oriented questions – those that start with ‘Should I…’
In our first episode of the new season, Vanessa asks the question "should I take an art class in 2025?"
We’re currently looking for more guests, so if you have a question from your own life, please submit to be on the show!
