The Cog Podcast
Welcome to The Cog Podcast, where we talk about all things public education. My name is Megg Acquilano and we call our podcast The Cog for a couple of reasons. Reason #1 is that I believe teaching is the profession that allows all other professions to exist. It's the cog or the center from which the spokes of our democracy originate. Reason #2 is that we're recording from the granite state, otherwise known as New Hampshire. NH is the home of the cog railway that climbs Mt. Washington — which is the world's first mountain-climbing cog railway and has been in operation since 1869.

To grow a garden or a specific kind of plant, there needs to be certain conditions for them to grow and thrive. It's complex and synergistic. The same goes for creating innovative conditions within our educational system. Addressing this can be overwhelming! Where do we start? Well, we start with homegrown ideas and turn them into a flourishing environment!
