  • Love it

    This is my favorite podcast that I follow. Joshua is brilliant and incredibly knowledgeable on so many different topics. He has been very influential for me in many ways, but particularly in homeschooling. He’s so interesting to listen to and I’m beyond grateful for all of the amazing content he keeps putting out. You don’t hear many of these ideas anywhere else and that’s what I love about this podcast. It’s always fresh, original, and fascinating.
