Human School

by Miles Adcox

We’ve been taught everything except how to be human. In a world obsessed with output, Human School is where we study what happens within. This podcast was born from a journal entry during a breakdown. A reminder that struggle isn’t weakness - it’s instruction. Human School reframes pain as purpose, productivity as presence, and leadership as inner clarity. We’re building the education we never got. Through stories, tools, and raw conversations, we help people stop performing their lives–and start participating in them. Welcome to Human School.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This podcast has grounded me during hard times and has an uncanny ability of offering timely insights with events occurring in my life. Amazing conversations and thoughtfulness all around. I love it.

CONNORPM · May 2026

Originally came across this podcast for the Tyler Hubbard episode. After tuning in I really connected with Miles and the style of conversation he has. It’s always fun to hear the life side of a popular music artist, but I also began to resonate with the psychology and faith side as well. Since then I’ve listened to almost every episode and can’t recommend enough. It’s refreshing, a format that’s unlike many out there and a nice change of pace. Check it out!

BoisePodcaster60 · May 2026

I have attempted to listen to the Jefferson Fisher episode, but find that the audio volume is very very weak. I have everything turned up as far as I can on my end and yet this podcast is very quiet compared to others that are easy to control the volume on. Unfortunately I will need to stop and sit somewhere quiet for the duration of this podcast in order to hear it. Which is not my usual routine when listening podcasts. Most podcasts have plenty of audio strength, and in fact may not even need to be turned up very much at all. If I could make a recommendation, when you are working with your recording levels and when you finish your final mastering of the podcast, make sure your audio levels are strong. I would rather have the ability to turn it down than never have enough capability to turn it up. Thank you for the nice work though, the quality of your content is good!😎🙏🏻

Miles thank you for brining your show to life. Thank you that you don’t follow a set format or keep it to a tidy set timeframe. The show is fresh, real, raw, and relatable. You keep us on our toes. Every episode is different and unique. You have bought in so many people I’ve not heard of before or only a little bit. But afterwards the show I definitely want to get to know them more. I look forward to listening to each episode. Don’t change a thing. You’re doing great. We need this authenticity and storytelling right now. From an Onsite alum. Still Trusting the Process one step at a time!
