BRICKS IN THE WALL PART 1
MARCH 13, 2022 AARON SMITH SEASON 1 EPISODE 21
SHOW NOTES:
Today, in Episode #21, we feature the first of a two part interview with Pete Gahagan, AKA Pete G, who shares some of the observations he has made about the educational system in the U.S. Of course, these observations are not confined to the US; many of them are pertinent to any place in Western civilization, to some degree or another. First and foremost, I want to acknowledge that being a teacher is an extremely challenging career.
