{In-Focus} Show AND Tell!
Listen now
Description
Remember the principle of 'show,  don't tell'?  As a didactic activity, most of us have fond memories of it, so much so that today we see the technique applied everywhere to areas as diverse as writing, sales, and storytelling. But is it possible that we've misconceived it this whole time? What if we've missed one crucial point that, without it, the principle fails to deliver?  In this new episode of the In-Focus miniseries, Leopold and Ricardo go through a wide-ranging conversation about the peaks and falls of 'show don't tell' as we learned it.
