Nick and Taylor discuss their experiences with coaching youth soccer in small town USA. Are sports a potential replacement for the so called "socialization" you'd typically get in public school? What makes a great athlete, and what's the role of the parent in this? What can kids hope to achieve playing sports?

Nick and Taylor discuss the pros and cons of an AI-driven education. What do we lose? What do we gain? Can AI get everyone back on the same page after years of political turmoil? Can it be the new standard of knowledge?
