Fan Mail
Jacob & Nathan— I absolutely love your podcast! You both bring such a thoughtful, intelligent, and engaging energy to each episode. One of the things I appreciate most—beyond the quality content—is the humility that consistently comes through. In a world where the EduIndustry can sometimes feel overrun with self-promotion and “EduCelebrity” vibes, you two are a refreshing contrast. You promote your work, sure—but it never feels performative or self-serving. It feels real. I’ve learned a lot over the years from people with big platforms and big egos, but I’ve learned so much more from voices like yours—grounded, insightful, and genuinely focused on the work. Keep it up! You’re making a real impact.
