Spotlight: Conversations From the Sioux Falls School District

Episode #10 - The Power of Stories with Jeff Tobin and Grant Schouten


Listen Later

What started as a podcast episode about podcasters quickly turned into a conversation about the importance of bringing people’s stories to life and preserving them through the podcasting medium. In this episode, Superintendent Jane Stavem talks with Washington High School educators Jeff Tobin and Grant Schouten. The duo discuss their motivation behind starting the Warrior Way podcast in the fall of 2020. They believe there are strong messages to send through podcasts by having honest, uninterrupted conversations with people. In a world where it gets harder to tune out the noise, podcasts provide a way to hear genuine conversations, and ideas and stories come through clearly. They are a way to learn about people, their stories, and what they have experienced. As Dr. Stavem says in the episode, “When we hear stories, we know better. And when we know better, we can do better.”

Whether you are new to podcasts or have listened to thousands of them, this episode is a must-hear!
