1 The Intro Show

In this episode, you might learn a bit about logic, philosophy, teaching, education, how a good education can make a profound impact in someone's life -- and you will learn about us. Melanie and Michael discuss what the ReasonRx Podcast will be about, discuss our paper credentials and practical credentials, discuss what we have done in education, and discuss our point of view in education: where we are coming from and what we value. Enjoy!Wrapping it up: we are rational animals, and we have a specific nature, which we learn about by studying biology, evolution, and ecology. We want to/need to be better thinkers and know philosophy so that we can thrive and strive to be better and help others be better, and thus make the culture better so that we can all live better.Episode outline: 0:00 Intro8:00 Melanie's "bio"23:50 Michael's "bio"30:30 A bit about our philosophy of education42:50 Introducing Prince Kitty!49:00 "If you want to play Rachmaninoff..." and other music studio tips50:30 Education affected by epigenetics, neural networking, synapse firing, electricity, sleep53:45 Michael's story about what motivated him as a youth: trains, cognition, and knowing why and how we think1:00:00 "Spock is fundamentally illogical"To support the show and help us grow our audience -- so we have more of an impact on education and the culture -- please help us with a donation:1. https://www.patreon.com/reasonrxpodcast 2. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=SP6QPQKJU4XSS&source=url Also, please consider liking us on your podcast app, and leaving a rational review.And if you find an episode valuable, please share it with parents, teachers, school personnel, friends, and family.
