Higher Educators: Interviews With Professors You Wish You Had

In this episode I chat with Dr. Lawrence Krauss. Dr. Krauss is a theoretical physicist. He previously taught at Yale University, Case Western Reserve University, and most recently at Arizona State University. Dr. Krauss is the author of many books (all available on Amazon) his most recent is The Physics of Climate Change.  We cover a good amount of ground in the time we got to chat and it was an all around great time. Enjoy. 

In the second episode of the Higher Educators Podcast we talk with Dr. Art Markman.  Dr. Markman is a professor of psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. He has written numerous books (all available on Amazon...shameless plug), his writings have appeared in numerous publications, and he is an all-round helpful + smart guy. In this episode we get DEEP. We talk about a bunch of things. Some of them include: Staying mentally strong during these crazy times, how we can fight back against anxiety + depression, and finding a meaningful path in life. This was a fun one.

In this inaugural episode we speak with Dr. H.W. Brands (6:48) about the current events happening all around us and what perspective his knowledge of history can provide. We also cover other interesting topics such as "what president would you least want to get into a brawl with?" and "what's something you think every life-long learner should know?"  Dr. H.W. Brands is the Jack S. Blanton Senior Chair in history at the University of Texas at Austin. He earned his Ph.D. in history in 1985 from UT Austin and has since been teaching and authored 30 books. His works have been finalists for the Pulitzer Prize two times.
