The Cowboy Philosopher

الوصف

In 2009, an old man died in a California nursing home. His obituary included not just his given name, but a long list of the pseudonyms he’d been known to use. In this classic 2019 episode, we trace the life of Riley Shepard, a hillbilly musician, writer, small-time con man and, perhaps, a genius. Then, on Your Questions Answered, psychologist Leslie John returns to answer your questions about when to share a secret, and when to keep it to yourself. You can find an online version of Riley Shepard's Encyclopedia of Folk Music here.   There's a powerful tool almost all of us overlook when we're trying to improve a work project or help our kids with their homework.
