    When's The Last Time You Played?

    In this week's episode, Patrick goes into the idea of play, and how we can move our thinking of play from what we see as child's play into adult play. Patrick discusses education, the lack of play in elementary schools and how he battled that as a teacher, and how playing transforms you as an older kid, teen, and adult. The music in this episode was created by Patrick Guindon using available loops in GarageBand. Written, recorded, edited and hosted by Patrick Guindon.
