Join me as I talk with Jennifer Jones: a school founder and visionary trying to 'blow up' the educational system from the inside. We discuss the wonders of the Wood Wide Web, why travel should be a school subject and how prisons compare to classrooms. Dive in to explore what links dodos to dreary lesson plans and just how bad our understanding of 'intelligence' is.

S3E3: John & Tardigrades

We're all animals. Sometimes we forget that. Thankfully, the Human Nature Cast is here to set things straight. Join us each Saturday for lively interviews with public figures that set out how amazingly diverse Homo sapiens can be, as well as our inseverable connection to our animal friends. From authors and animators to athletes and adventurers, from composers to comedians, we celebrate the wonders of Human Nature. And, with the help of 8.7 million animal species, we start to unravel the true meaning of life! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
