Episode 4094: Michael Mehlberg argues that the fastest, deepest learning comes from actively doing rather than passively consuming information. Using the story of a first flying lesson, he shows how combining reading, watching, listening, teaching, and hands-on experience leads to lasting understanding and encourages you to take control of your own learning.
