#29 Humour & Wisdom: Asking Children the “Big Questions” with George Pointon

Hello and welcome to the TeachStrong Talks podcast!

Normally on the show, we invite experts from different fields of wellbeing to share their advice, experience and tips to help you thrive in and out of school. This is a bit of a different episode! For episode #29, I’ve invited George Pointon on the show to have a chat about humour, wisdom and what happens when we ask children those big questions.

If you don’t know George, he works with children and recently started to make some time during the week to ask them some of life’s big questions. He then shares their hilarious responses and adds some of his own analysis too!

The threads are really funny and certainly provide a bit of comic relief from the seriousness of Twitter, teaching and life in general!

I had a lot of fun talking to George. We chatted about how the threads came about and his comedic influences, and then I invited him to share some of his favourite responses from the kids.

I hope this episode provides you with some much needed humour today. And please if you enjoy it then do share with friends, family and colleagues!
