What Is Higher Education Good For? | The Good and Basic Podcast episode 26
01/15/20 • 52 min
In which JB and JF celebrate JB joining the faculty of a small college in the wilderness by talking about higher education in general--what is it good for, how can you extract the best out of it, and what could be done to make it better? We cover a lot of ground, but when it comes to education there's always more to tackle and we'll likely be back soon.

It's Not All Smooth Sailing: The Good and Basic Podcast episode 28
In which we begin with Polynesian carved canoes and end up with cathedrals. Our conversation is quite the trip, but still not as impressive as the Polynesians who navigated across the ocean with no land in sight and no known destination.
