I am always grateful to have a conversation with my friend legendary Coach Dan John. Over the years, we’ve been exploring T.H. White’s The Sword in the Stone, using it as a lens to explore education, mentorship, and the way we learn.

In this episode, we explore the distinction between knowledge gained through questions and experience versus a quick Google search, youtube, or even reading.

You don’t need to have read The Sword in the Stone to enjoy this episode, though I highly recommend it. The themes we explore are universal and I love being on this journey with Dan.

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. If you do, please share the episode and take a moment to rate the podcast on your platform of choice.
