Description

Who Needs A Classroom is a weekly podcast from current rapper / former university lecturer C.Shreve the Professor. After leaving academia and experiencing the social isolation that defined American life in 2020, Shreve decided he needed a new way to connect with the world. Who knows where these discussions will lead. Prone to ramble and follow ideas down their rabbit holes, the Professor's conversational approach was a favorite of his students and he's hoping his new listeners will relate as well.

Fake Friends

2026/10/28

Following up on the concept of authenticity, its complete lack might be most exemplified in the fake friend. Not to be confused with a chapter friend, situational friend, or friend associate. Real relationships require trust and reciprocity, two concepts that can unfortunately be weaponized by manipulative people.

Authenticity

2026/07/17

Being a more authentic human has been all the rage for a while now--but what does that really mean? The Professor discusses authenticity and its caveats while asking his listeners who really deserves that from us. What happens when keeping it real goes right?

Omicron

2022/08/26

After testing positive for both Covid and the flu, the Professor had some anecdotal evidence to share--mostly relating to his symptoms and the overall experience of being sick with Omicron.

Attitude & Effort

2022/08/07

The world of youth sports can be a real test for even the most patient, level headed parents and kids. After spending the last 12 months coaching his son in 3 different sports, the Professor highlights two key points of focus that can be used by both children and adults: attitude and effort. While many things are out of our hands, the perspective we utilize to assess our situation and the work ethic we're willing to put towards our goals are largely in our control.

The Bubble

2022/06/13

How do we make sense of all the tragedy in the world? How can we get anything done with all the madness going on? Sometimes we have to put blinders on, narrow our focus, and create a bubble that works for us.

What’s Important

2022/05/24

After taking a break to reassess and recalibrate what’s important, the Professor is back with a new season of episodes. Since you can’t do it all, and you especially can’t do it all today, each of us has to figure out what our priorities are if we hope to progress towards them. Spending some time figuring out our why and our what can help save us a lot of wasted energy on things that aren’t important. Actualizing our vision involves aligning our big goals with our everyday little habits.

Biostatistics: For The Kids

2021/05/25

Part 4 of the Professor's series on Biostatistics. Epidemiologists know that if we can hold on a little longer, we can beat this thing. Remember that even if you're vaccinated, kids everywhere aren't. If we jump the gun and try to get back to normal too soon, we'll end up making this drag out even longer--and endanger millions of people in the process.

Beginner's Mind

2021/05/14

Trying something new puts you in the beginner category. While new beginnings are beautiful, they can also be frustrating, confusing, and disappointing, especially when expectations aren't realistic. Embracing the idea of a child's mind--one of curiosity, wonder, and fresh perspective--in both our personal and professional lives can bring new opportunities and help us break out of rigid thought processes and preconceptions.

4th Grade Principles

2021/05/03

Staying at home with our kids in online learning scenarios allows us a special window into the teaching environments and curriculum that otherwise wouldn't have been available. After listening in on his son's 4th grade class for the past year, Shreve shares some principles that we can all apply.

Biostatistics: Summarizing Data

2021/04/22

The third installment in C.Shreve's series on Biostatistics focusses largely on measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variation (range, standard deviation, coefficient of variation). Nominal & ordinal scales are discussed as well as qualitative and quantitative variables. The usefulness of figures is highlighted and a sample standard deviation problem work through is included.

One Step at a Time

2021/04/16

Big tasks and projects have to be broken down incrementally. The entire journey cannot be completed in one day--and thus only the part of the process you're in now demands your full attention. Finding a way to focus in and concentrate your energy on the step at hand is vital to unlocking your full potential.

Work.

2021/04/09

You gotta put in work if you expect to build anything. Your time has value and if you waste it, a part of you knows that you've lost an opportunity. Working at something improves your competence, which in turn improves your confidence. Work is the simple four letter word that can make all the difference.

Biostatistics: Populations & Samples

2021/04/01

Part 2 of the Professor's series on Biostatistics drives home the point that the way the sample is selected is more important than its overall size. A large sample is useful, but not if the numbers reflect a sampling bias. Selecting a sample that is representative of the population being studied is absolutely vital to reaching solid conclusions.

Biostatistics Intro

2021/03/25

For more than a decade, Professor Shreve taught Biostatistics to public health students. An understanding of how scientific data & information is collected, analyzed, and presented is vital for critical thinking. This first episode of the series introduces several basic concepts such as significance, blinding, randomization, bias, and more.

The Grey Area

2021/03/19

As the world attempts to reopen and get back to normal, performing artists are left to make the difficult choice of when it makes sense to start touring and hosting shows again. Though Shreve makes the point that things aren't grey at all right now, there will certainly be a transition period where each artist will have to make the decisions that feel best regarding live shows.
