Mike Myers lives in West Lafayette, Indiana and is a lifelong Hoosier. He is currently a high school social studies teacher and previously worked in middle schools as a teacher and administrator. Mike and host Michael Whidden were connected by Dustin McKinney, the guest from podcast episode 51.
Our discussion covers, among other things:
*the reasons he enjoys teaching
*how history may not repeat itself, but it rhymes
*balancing, in a democracy, patience vs flexibility and loud voices vs quiet voices
*following the Indy 500...on the radio
*sugar cream pie and fried pork tenderloin (yum and yum)
*notable destinations in the Hoosier State
Mike finds hope in the younger generation, observing that they are more empathetic, kind, outspoken and believing in justice.
