That was a great podcast S.T.. I think I may have heard a dissertation not unlike the final thought a few times over the years. Culture the final frontier… Perhaps a course on the influences of popular culture would not be a bad idea. If your audience truly wishes to challenge their own thinking and beliefs I think it would be a smashing success. Until next time my friend.
