My recurring guest Dan John has taken me on this incredible journey through T.H. White’s The Once and Future King, or The Sword in the Stone. In previous episodes with Dan, we discuss everything from fitness philosophy to musicals.
Many of you know Dan John as one of the premier fitness industry coaches and resources. His credibility as a strength coach, author, and mentor to many in fitness is world-renowned.
I am fortunate that he has agreed to explore the themes and philosophies of The Sword in the Stone with me and how they relate to modern times. Although this book was written in 1938, the lessons of education, empathy, gratitude, morality, and work ethic are relevant to today.
Today we discuss the themes of class systems and education, and how they impact society. Regardless if you have read the novel or not, the discussions that Dan and I have are interesting, lively, and enriching. I urge everyone to listen with an open mind and to let me know your thoughts. (especially if you have read the book!)
It has been an honor to talk with guests like Dan, and I hope to continue to bring these conversations to you. In order to help me do that, please share this podcast with others.
