This twenty-fourth episode of the Philosophy Bakes Bread radio show and podcast is another "breadcrumb" with Dr. Mariana Alessandri of the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. In this breadcrumb, we talk about how to talk to our kids about the little engine that couldn't, or quixotic pessimism, the focus of our full-length episode 22.

Episode 22 of the show was titled "The Little Engine that Couldn't." If you haven't heard it yet, check it out and don't miss episode 23, breadcrumb 3, our first of two breadcrumbs with Dr. Alessandri.
