“I felt like there was a dark piece of you that was under there.”
-Rachel Crowe
About:
For Part II of this four-part podcast prologue, we return to the school years. It’s a life experience most people can relate to—good or bad—in large part because of the amount of time spent.
If you’re in your mid-20s and graduated from a four-year college or university, there’s a fair chance that you’ve spent almost one-third of your life waiting for some sort of bell to ring.
(You can do the math—[(# of semesters attended *~70 days per college semester)+(# of years spent in primary education*~180 days per primary school year) / [(# of years on Earth * 365 days of the year)]])*
So for this episode, I went back to school. I’ve interviewed long-time friends and folks that I haven’t spoken to in a long-time. I reached out to professors, classmates and foes. And a high-school coach who once taught Ralph Macchio—the Karate Kid.
How much have I changed? What did people think of me? Do people even remember who I am?
*P.S. You should know I’m bad at math, so if the above formula is suspect, please tweet it out. And then share the episode with everyone you know.
Notes:
6a. ^^^ This was the song I listened to before I broke my five-minute mile
7a. Coach Finn was Mr. Macchio’s health teacher at one point
18a. ^^^FYI, this is a Nazi propaganda song
