David Gamut travels the world performing at speaking events where he uses his skills as a mentalist to entertain as well as educate the audience on how to have empathy for one another, and how to have productive conversations with people we disagree with. We had the pleasure of interviewing him on Atheists Talk. Listen to the interview
