Elect Sounds Radio sits down with podcaster Chris Briggs for a personal conversation about his testimony, the changing media landscape, and what inspired him to create a platform built around conversation.

Every microphone has a story behind it.

For Chris Briggs, host and creator of Can We Talk Or Not Talk, that story goes beyond simply deciding to start a podcast. Behind the conversations is a personal journey, a perspective shaped by experience, and a reason for creating a space where people can actually talk.

Elect Sounds Radio recently sat down with Briggs for a conversation that gives listeners an opportunity to get to know the person behind the podcast.

Rather than focusing only on what Chris does, the conversation explores why he does it.

A STORY WORTH HEARING

At the center of the interview is Chris Briggs’ testimony. Listeners will hear Chris speak about his journey and some of the experiences that helped shape the man and communicator he is today.

It is an opportunity to move beyond the podcast title and microphone and hear something more personal—the story behind the voice. That testimony also provides important context for understanding the way Briggs approaches conversation and media.

WHY MEDIA MATTERS

Media has changed dramatically. Today, independent creators can build platforms without waiting for traditional television networks, radio stations, publishers, or other established institutions to give them permission to speak. But greater access to a microphone also raises important questions.

• What are we using that microphone for?
• What kinds of conversations are worth creating?
• What responsibility comes with having a platform?
• And what can independent media offer that people may not be receiving elsewhere?

During his conversation with ESR, Briggs shares his own thoughts about media and the role it can play in connecting people, sharing perspectives, and creating meaningful dialogue.

WHY “CAN WE TALK OR NOT TALK”?

Then there is the podcast itself. Can We Talk Or Not Talk is more than a memorable title. Behind it is Chris Briggs’ decision to create his own platform and his own space for conversation.

During the interview, Chris discusses why he created the podcast, what motivated him to begin, and the thinking behind the conversations he wants the platform to make possible.

• For people who already know Can We Talk Or Not Talk, the interview offers an opportunity to learn more about the person behind it.
• For listeners discovering Chris Briggs for the first time, it is an introduction—not simply to another podcast, but to the story and purpose that helped bring it to life.

A CONVERSATION WITH CHRIS BRIGGS

This is not about putting someone in the hot seat. It is about sitting down and talking.

• About testimony.
• About purpose.
• About media.
• And about why someone decides that a conversation is important enough to build a platform around it.
