How do you like it?! Moore, Moore, Moore!
Glory on high. The long anticipated wait is over!! Connor Moore returns to Top Shelf Studios for a hang filled with foreign policy discussion, hopeful outlooks on a potential global conflict, and valuable book recommendations. A graduate of Wartburg holding a degree in History & Political Science, Connor spent the last year teaching English in Hungary as part of the ELCA program.
We talked about Connor’s initial ethical concerns with “missionary” work, how he found this opportunity with ELCA & the Lutheran church while not being a practicing Lutheran himself, and how Connor’s mentors helped guide him into uncomfortable situations through his time at Wartburg & throughout his travels to Hungary. Beyond being enticing to graduate programs, international experience at a young age has expanded Connor’s perspectives on humanity. People have more in common that they have differences, yet we often focus all attention on things which divide us — nationality, race, class.
Connor hated school growing up. His battle to find success was in part driven from an initial “prove-it” mindset, but continued with the positive impact of mentors & professors along the way. I’m telling ya, don’t sleep on the small private schools in Iowa! If you apply yourself, the access to professors & inspiration is unmatched.
From Zen professors asking about tree limbs, to teachers who believe sarcasm to be the highest demonstration of intelligence, you won’t want to miss a minute of this episode with Connor.
The Tallest thanks to Connor for being himself. I am so thankful we have him in this world. Keep crushing it dude, you’re going to make this place better for all of us.
Yes, I am behind on the Patreon. Yes I carry the weight of embarrassment with me daily. Yes there is a huge catalog of content already on there. I’m trying to publish two episodes a week through the election, so I appreciate the fans cutting me some slack on the premium content.
