Is our education system producing thinkers… or repeaters? Featuring Peter Calfee and Kevin Dolan
Description
Is our education system producing thinkers… or repeaters?
In this episode, we sat down with Peter Calfee and Kevin Dolan to discuss:
• The decline of critical thinking
• Education vs. indoctrination
• Competition in schooling
• Capitalism and the structure of a republic
• Why communication and reasoned debate matter more than ever
One line that stood out:
“Our children are the seed corn of the future.”
If we don’t equip them to question, analyze, and defend their ideas, what happens next?
This is not a surface-level conversation.
It’s about the long-term health of society.
🎧 Listen now.
💬 Then tell us — what do you think education is missing today?
