Summary

In today's flagship Lions of Liberty's podcast, Marc is joined by Connor Boyack, who put together the new book "Skip College: Launch Your Career Without Debt, Distractions, or a Degree", as well as Brittany Hunter, senior writer for the Foundation for Economic Education, who also contributed to the book. After Connor and Brittany explain their paths to becoming passionate advocates for the ideas of liberty, they each describe their own experiences with higher education and why they advocate that burgeoning adults consider alternatives to college among their options for furthering their own education and career.
