The recent launch of Scope’s Candid Conversations series is bringing you frank, open discussions about the things that matter.
From dating, to gender, to learning how to use Google Home in your 60s, we’re asking the easy questions, the hard ones and everything in between.
In its premiere, Candid Conversations covers International Day of People with a Disability and the importance of innovation and technology. We meet Zane, Teace, Megan, Mia, Daniel, Maree and Jake who openly share their experiences.
Keep an eye out in 2023 for the next Candid Conversations episode where we talk all things dating, relationships and Valentine’s Day.
