"Cultivating humility is one of the key characteristics of a good teacher, or of becoming a good teacher..."
This week, we're joined once again by health and wellness guru Howard Jacobson, for a discussion of the perils of pride.
Along the way, we touch upon what pride is; whether there's such a thing as "good" pride; moral/religious injuctions on pride; humility and realism as the anitdote to ego; and why bees are assholes :)
