Beyond the Textbook ft. Pranjali Sanwatsarkar | Ep31

ThatOneThinker

Oh, man! What can I say about this episode?

I think this is the best episode I’ve recorded with someone who I’ve debated a lot with, shared happiness with, and perhaps even got scolded for good, but in the end, learned something new; learned something useful, something significant, something prominent.

Well, all of my school teachers have taught me more than what’s in the textbook, and hence this episode of the podcast is all about "beyond the textbook", some parts did align with the subject but I highly-highly recommend y’all to hear the complete episode, if not the last segment of the podcast.

I might invite all of my teachers subsequently but this one’s with my social studies teacher who you’re gonna get to know more about as you go along listening to this one. Again, every time I get back to listening to this one I just can’t stop cherishing it, adoring it, and well today’s a special day, 9th June, when I’m releasing this cause it’s my birthday and I bet y’all would enjoy this one just like how Pranjali teacher and I did.
