Podcast by Sam Barton
Interviews w/ authors, entrepreneurs, athletes and others on resilience, getting on or getting over life’s set ups and setbacks. If research exists on how people bounce back, he talks about it. If there are physical practices, proven psychologies or philosophies that can help people build personal foundations before the storms come, he digs into it.
It's been 10 years since the debut of this amazing show. I wanted to talk to the people behind the scenes to uncover who wrote what and what it was like bringing to life our favorite comedy. We'll talk about the best jokes, the best moments, and everything we've learned from 6 years at our favorite community college, Greendale.
