Coleman Hughes returns to the podcast for a wide ranging conversation with Bridget about his new teaching position at University of Austin, their mission to rescue free speech from the clutches of woke academia, what a healthy version of DEI might look like, and the course he's teaching about the legacy of slavery and what aspects of American society today are part of the long-term consequences of slavery and what are not. They cover red-lining, the attack on the idea that America is basically good, the magic of comedy and how it allows you to get around all the common psychological blocks that a person might have, why cruelty pays on the internet, what Democrats can do to right the ship, the AI arms race between teachers and students, and how he's AI proofed his class - even though he encourages his students to use it as a tool.

Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy - Podcast Bridget Phetasy admires grit and authenticity. On Walk-Ins Welcome, she talks about the beautiful failures and frightening successes of her own life and the lives of her guests. She doesn’t conduct interviews—she has conversations. Conversations with real people about the real struggle and will remind you that we can laugh in pain and cry in joy but there’s no greater mistake than hiding from it all. By embracing it all, and celebrating it with the stories she’ll bring listeners, she believes that our lowest moments can be the building blocks for our eventual fulfillment.
