About this Episode

Though the Jacksway Collective may have one of the most sporadic release schedules online, when there is a release, it's worth listening. Especially this one.

Jhana had the priveliege of sitting down to chat with Professor Scott Palmer from the University of Texas at Arlington. Professor Palmer is a scholar of Russian history, the history of aviation, the history of technology, and the history of video games. He's also a fascinating guy and a great conversationalist.

The conversation ranged from Russian History, Joseph Stalin, what it means to be "great" in the historical sense, great works of literature, online education, and much much more. If you are at all interested in history, this is the perfect episode for you.
