#1473: "The Traveling Language Teacher"

Does a love of language spur people to travel the world, or is it the other way around? I don’t know if we’ll be able to answer that question in the next 25 minutes, but with any luck you’ll have something to think about.

Today on the Best of Our Knowledge, we’ll meet a teacher who took the dream of living abroad, and turned it into a career…a family…and a life.

We’ll also spend an Academic Minute with Woody Guthrie, Charles Schultz and a comic book…with a little communism thrown in for good measure.
