Mishaps. Flops. Missteps. Things that don’t hit the mark and downright blunders. We all experience failures in life. This episode is a nod to this commonplace ‘event’ that dominates much of our waking thought. 

In the Main Episode and the Behind The Scenes Bulletin you’ll learn about:

• Where the word failure comes from

• How the concept of failure has changed over time

• Why some schools need to redesign how they treat different ability groups

• Ways to rethink failure

• What the acronym FAIL means

• Three of my ‘bloopers’ from Season 2 and how they relate to failure

The Robins Curious Travels podcast is reviewed and why Seraphina wishes podcast producers would consult with children more.

In this episode you’ll hear from 1) my trusty sidekick triplet brothers Montgomery and Horatio and 2) former movie mogul now host of the podcast called Failure, Ryan Kavanaugh. They all share their views on Failure, in their own ways.
