0:00.0 | Today I had the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Stephen Hicks, who's a philosopher with a stellar academic career, very good author. |
0:25.0 | And we talked about, well, we talked about his contributions to Peterson Academy first. |
0:30.2 | He's taught five courses at this new online university that some of you may be aware of, |
0:34.4 | and the rest of you should be, as far as I'm concerned. He's taught five courses there, and we detailed out the structure of the courses, |
