From Revisionist History: The Relative Age Effect

I'm sharing a bonus episode from a podcast I love, Revisionist History. Revisionist History is bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell’s podcast about things misunderstood and overlooked. This season, Malcolm’s obsessed with experiments – natural experiments, scientific experiments, thought experiments. In this episode, Revisionist History explores a category of privilege that’s often ignored: age. He heads to the University of Pennsylvania to examine how this overlooked privilege plays out in the classroom.
