In this episode we discuss the challenges of enacting positive change in small, insular communities. We debate issues like low pay for youth program workers, resistance to new ideas, and the difficulty of modernizing institutions that have remained stagnant for decades.

We also touch on the pride locals take in traditional ways of life and skepticism of outsiders.

To end, we dive into conversations that will continue into future episodes of our recent nerding out to US history figures, biographies, and more.

John and Aimee share their thoughts, musings, tips, and principles on a variety of topics relating to raising kids, education, farming, and the circus that is their life.
