I plan on sharing this with the teachers at my daughter’s school. I learn a lot when I listen to these episodes — especially the episode about Puerto Rico. Great to hear these voices. Highly recommend.

I was on my school paper in high school as a comic strip writer for my whole school.
Now the student newspaper is a podcast to the whole world.
I felt no limits as a kid to drink in everything, but my range of peers was limited in ways that no longer exist.
Just avoid an echo chamber and the future of the world is yours to mold with all your peers in that world to much better effect than we did.
