“When I fall on the ground, instead of kicking dirt in my face, how about you point me to the direction of town” Jacob Wheeler

Guest: Ralston Academy Student Jacob Wheeler

Topics Covered:

Drugs, Jiu-Jitsu, astrophysics, education reform, government, Shepherd Fairey’s Obey brand, enneagram, talking on taboo subjects, and EGO.

Jacob Wheeler is an alternative education student at Ralston Academy. Jacob confesses that a drug dealer will know he smokes weed because he “looks the part.” In spite of this outward appearance Jacob grants listeners a tour into his mind. What you find is a student who studies astrophysics on his own time, knows Jiu-Jitsu, and has a wide-ranging belief system on government, education, and freedom of speech. Jacob is a student of hip-hop and hopes to produce a major album in the future.
