Teaching Tactics To Redefine Education w/Warren Smith & Some Guy Named John

Peter Boghossian and Educator Warren Smith discuss teaching methods, belief systems, and truth. They emphasize the importance of a calm demeanor in teaching that’s akin to success in martial arts. The conversation extends to the success of actors portraying complex characters and how personal experiences can lead to a sense of the sacred. Peter and Warren are later joined by some guy named John (Doug Pinecreek), who shares their approach to teaching life skills. They questions John about his refusal to pay for his son’s college tuition.
