University Is Broken, and Living a Quiet Life In A Social Media Age

Jeremy Pryor's Podcast

Jeremy is joined by his daughters Sydney and Elisa to discuss the higher education crisis in the US (especially compared to what the Pryor daughters are experiencing in Korea), and to wrestle with the question of how to "aspire to lead a quiet life" in an age obsessed with publicity.
