The Duke TIP Podcast Episode 1: John Claude Bemis

Click here to listen!

On our very first episode of The Duke TIP Podcast, Tracy and Katy talk with author John Claude Bemis about working with the parents of gifted students, finding age-appropriate reading for his 9-year-old daughter, and spurring creativity through travel. Tracy tells us about reading Jurassic Park at too young an age and poses a wedding-attire-etiquette dilemma to the group. Katy relives the Great Cake Pop Debacle of 2017 and mixes in some discussion on the evolution of surfboard engineering.
