The roots of the video go back to TBS Education inviting the comedian Sammy Obeid (known as the host of “100 Humans” on Netflix) to participate in its Inspiring Guest program.
On 9 August 2020 Sammy Obeid and TBS professor David Stolin gave an online workshop at the Academy of Management annual meeting. In it, they asked participants to propose to us a topic that their students struggle with, committing to record a humorous video about it three days later.
The workshop received the prize for the best session of the Teaching and Learning Conference.
You can watch a subtitled recording of the workshop here.
You can watch a video about the creative process here.
