Eric Weinstein: Part 2

#Parenting #TheoryOfEverything #ThePortal

Part 2 of Eric Weinstein’s interview on the INTO THE IMPOSSIBLE podcast pivots from academia into questions of faith and family. Watch the episode to hear his philosophy on parenting.

Weinstein and I discussed the offerings at the (for now fictional) “Weinstein University”, which would combine learning with wonder. We also contemplate our legacies and how podcasts can contribute.
