Episode notes
O'Briens' Domestic Dilemma
- The O'Briens debate sending Keiko to Bajor so she can teach away from the Dominion threat and be fulfilled.
- The hosts joke about shuttle travel being only three hours and mock replacing careers with hobbies as inadequate solutions.
Hobby Isn't A Career Fix
- Julian points out that giving Keiko a hobby won't solve her need for fulfillment and the problem will return.
- The hosts note that replacing a career with a hobby is a short-term fix, not a real solution.
Use Virtual Teaching In Crises
- Use technology like holosuites or remote programs to keep teaching during threats instead of canceling schools.
- The hosts suggest holosuite/virtual solutions as practical alternatives to shutting down education.
