In this bonus sixth episode of Learn/Earn/Relarn, the podcast team looks back on the series — lessons learned, concerns uncovered, inspiration, excitement, and opportunities revealed. 

In the first part of episode 6, hosts Rovy Branon and Hanson Hosein recap episode 5 with futurist Amy Webb. The future is coming fast and furious — are we ready to meet it?  

Rovy and Hanson also connect dots between our five episodes and the continuing questions: How do educators prepare the workers of the future? and How will the very nature of education have to change in response to advances in technology and longevity? 

In the second part of this episode, the podcast editorial and production team, including Tia Over of Spring Green Communications and Shannon Perry of Audiotocracy Podcast Production, talk about why this content was perfect for a podcast. Intimate, exploratory, portable, accessible, and repeatable podcasts fit how we live our lives. 

After all, effective communications will be critical in the future we've been talking about — perhaps even more crucial than now. Having the flexibility and opportunity to learn and use the best available technology is undoubtedly one of the biggest takeaways from this series. 

Thank you for joining us at Learn/Earn/Relearn. We hope you'll continue to share the episodes and let them fuel your conversations about how to prepare for the future that's ahead — or already here.
