What underlies differences in cultural diversity across societies?
The out-of-Africa migration.
Societies whose ancestors migrated farther from Africa show lower diversity in music, folklore, and social norms, values & attitudes.

Thanks for inviting me and the great discussion afterwards. Sorry that @ACDickens couldn't be around - he would've been more fun and knowledgeable about the Canadian TV context!

CDN TV emerged as a dual system of private (local) and public (national) broadcasters, yet early policy prevented the expansion of both into the same market. Local news differences across markets explains the direction of change in voter turnout and political accountability. 7/8

@ryancbriggs Way to go! Your experience is relatable. I did the same thing (a year ago today!) but with running. I could barely run 5k at that point and now I am running a full marathon in June.

After about 20 years of not regularly exercising, I tried to become an exercise person last year. Since then I’ve rowed about 1.3 million metres. I wrote up some reflections on it here:
