Boston, 1720. 14- letni Benjamin pochyla się nad książką pożyczoną na jedną noc.Świeca dogasa.Jeśli zaśnie, brat go znowu zbije.Jeśli ojciec zobaczy światło, zacznie się to wszystko od nowa.W drugiej części serii o Benjaminie Franklinie opowiadam, jak chłopak bez szkoły, bez pieniędzy i bez wolności stał się w 5 lat mistrzem prozy, wegetarianinem szokującym purytański Boston i świadkiem epidemii, która rozdarła miasto na pół.Czego się dowiesz: 6- stopniowa metoda nauki pisania, którą szesnastoletni Franklin wymyślił sam, w pustej drukarni o piątej rano. Metoda, która działa do dziś i nie wymaga ani nauczyciela, ani kursów.Wegetariańska herezja Franklina – dlaczego przestał jeść mięso w mieście, gdzie to był społeczny skandal. Jak chleb z rodzynkami i szklanka wody dały mu dwie rzeczy, których nikt się nie spodziewał.Epidemia ospy 1721 roku, która podzieliła Boston na dwa wrogie obozy. Spór o szczepienia, granat rzucony w okno i pierwsza naprawdę wolna gazeta w Ameryce.3 lekcje z tego odcinka możesz zastosować u siebie jeszcze w tym tygodniu.Wesprzyj podcast: patronite.pl/podcastlepiejteraz  Postaw kawę: suppi.pl/lepiejterazŹRÓDŁA ODCINKAŹródła główne (pierwotne):Benjamin Franklin, The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, część I (napisana w Twyford, Anglia, 1771).
