The panel for our fourth episode includes Coltrane Stagg, Neil Karkhanis, Dustin Lampropulos, and Leandros Rivera.

The topic that they have chosen to discuss is Philosophy.

This is such a HUGE topic, our panelists have SO much to discuss.

The Youth will attempt to answer the following questions: What is philosophy? Where does it originate? What are some of the big ideas philosophy has brought into light? Is philosophy important? If so, in what ways? What is your personal philosophy, and how does it affect you, your family, community, country, and the world?

Our panel will discuss all this and more. If you are able to watch live, feel free to ask questions, and our panel will do their best to answer.

Anne Boie, Producer
Anne Boie is an entrepreneur and partner in work, family and play to her husband, David Leahy. She is a dedicated unschooling mother of the four Leahy children, ages 4- 16. The Leahy family has lived in Suburban Dallas, Rural Grayson County, Texas, and several years ago after the birth of their fourth child, they decided to pursue their dream of a more exciting urban location, as close to New York City as they could manage financially. After researching several options with the help of their children, they chose Hackettstown, New Jersey, located between New York City and Philadelphia, and moved their warehouse of more than a million Lego bricks, two dogs, three cats, four children, one Nana (David’s mom) and all their belongings halfway across the country. They have been happily living there for almost 3 years now, and are always eager to meet and talk to both experienced and new unschoolers.
Anne was very excited to take on the role of co-producer of the For the Love of Learning show, as a means of exploring ideas about education from people all over the world, and to help create a better world by showing parents that there is another way, they don’t have to blindly follow the crowd when it comes to education and raising happy children.
She is even more excited to take on this new role as lead producer for Youth on Subjects of the World. This amazing group of young people will give you hope for the future of our world.
