Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
This week, we’re giving the regular crew off so we can bring you this special edition of the Ricochet Podcast featuring our entire editorial staff. Troy Senik, Jon Gabriel, Claire Berlinski, Tom Meyer, and Rob Long gather together (well, virtually though the magic of Skype) to opine on Trump and how he harms Jeb’s (!) chances at winning the nomination. Also, the future of education, a certain Rico Editor’s man crush on Alexander Hamilton, and why Ricochet has become the web’s number one venue for janitorial insights.

Oh, we do! I took 4 AP classes online during high school, and then (well, after college) I taught online English courses to homeschoolers for 7 years. The internet has been a boon for homeschooling parents.
Buried Gold
A semi-Likekian Segue by Senick turns a great courses commercial into a thought provoking 20 minute discussion on education for the skill set society of the early twentieth century.
As a grandparent of 6 , all navigating through what passes for K-12 public education in Obamas America, the need to supplement public learning with private Sector wisdom is glaring. Attempts to inform their parents, my direct offspring, results in eye rolling ” there he goes again”.
Packaging this discussion, or a retake into a”listen to this” could be a forward able brand builder for ricochet .
Make sure great courses hears this , under the heading of getting your money’s worth. Leaves PBS in the dust!
