On paper, Maureen Boland and Pat Cooper might seem like unlikely friends. They come from very different backgrounds and have had totally disparate life experiences. Maureen was Pat's high school teacher years ago. But as deeply curious people, interested in complex matters of the heart and mind, they've found many threads of connection between them. 

In our final episode of this season, Maureen's former student Pat Cooper talks about growing up in North Philadelphia, his spiritual awakenings, fatherhood and writing. The two also reflect on some of the podcast stories that resonated with him.
