Whisper networks develop in the theater world as an informal communication network, a source of solidarity, or even a way to fight abuse and injustice. Join Yasi and Steven as they discuss this issue with Dr. Ted Carter, professor at Ballarmine University in Louisville, Kentucky. Dr Carter wrote a dissertation about whisper networks, and we discuss the issues of professional misconduct and miscreant behaviors that often lead to whisper networks forming. We also dive into his work in human simulation technology to educate our future medical professionals.
