Barefoot: A Podcast from Boris A. Angelov

Society & Culture


In this episode, I begin with a story of why I started the Barefoot Podcast and then dive into the story of Prof. Robert Phillips. Why would an American professor come to Bulgaria in the 90s? What's the difference between the students he taught back then and current ones? We had the chance to discuss how people have changed over generations and what contributed to that change. We talked about the role of the government versus the role of the citizen and how much should the public be involved in decisions like BREXIT, the intersection of business and the political world, how can we work for a better society and how to consume the news without getting caught up in the noise.
