Deep Dives & Light Laughs
Deep Dives & Light Laughs is a podcast about creating connection and how to build it. Hosted by Larry Carpman and Lindsay Purcell, this podcast started in the fall of 2023 after Lindsay continued to spark conversations with Larry at a popular coffee shop on the South Shore of Massachusetts, Slacktide Coffee Roasters. These regulars formed a friendship through easy conversations filled with deep dives and light laughs. Their goal is to use humor, stories, and mutual connections to explore getting to know people on a deeper level without asking the tired question, "So what do you do?" Listen to hear them interview some incredible people about what lights them up, how they cultivate connection, and IF that’s what they ended up doing for work...
