The end has come! The podcast concludes with some closing reflections from Krishna and Palacios. They chat it up about how the podcast evolved over time and what it has meant to each of them during the last ten months. It's been an incredible ride.

A special thanks goes out to all the guests that were on the show. You made it memorable.

In this special bonus episode, Krishna and Palacios sit down to talk with the founding principal of the Bronx Center for Science and Mathematics, Mr. Edward Tom. He has been our school's leader for the last 16 years and has reached the end of his journey with us. But before he parts ways with BCSM and begins his next chapter, we grabbed him for an impromptu conversation at the well-known (and well-worn) round table that resides in the middle of his office. With him saying goodbye, there was a lot for us all to reflect on. We hope this episode helps to capture this unique moment in BCSM history.

Do you prefer the beach or the mountain? 

That question is one of the many topics of discussion in this episode featuring Ms. Riley, one of the Spanish teachers at BCSM. She's a firm believer in learning from and with her students, has had a wealth of professional experiences, and has become an indelible piece of the BCSM community. The discussion was interesting and fun...and even brought out some fire in Krishna near the end.
