    Thomas Bogle is an Economics teacher at Corona del Sol and he spends every bit of energy he can muster trying to cultivate an appreciation for entrepreneurial thinking in the minds of his students. What I like most about Mr. Bogle is that his lifestyle flies in the face of the old saying "if you can't do, teach." Thomas doesn't just talk about entrepreneurship, he practices what he preaches. He's the very kind of teacher this world needs: a person who eats, drinks, sleeps, and embodies the very message he conveys in the classroom.

    "What Are You Failing At?" is a series of short conversations with entrepreneurs, educators, and various experts on what they're currently failing at and what strategies they're currently employing to cope with and/or conquer those failures. The aim of the show is to highlight the fact that vulnerability is an inherent part of the human condition while affirming the strength and wisdom that comes from honestly, openly, and sometimes humorously revealing our not-so successful side. The style of the podcast will be casual and conversational (no need to be pretty or pretentious when vulnerability is the main theme) and my goal is to keep each episode under 5 minutes. New episodes will be published every Monday.
