    Best podcast on this platform. High quality, good production, meaningful conversations. I’m always learning something new.

    I’m on track to be done with the ten year reading program of the Great Books in Q1 2024. Trying to decide if I should wait till then to enroll in the Great Books Masters Program.

      That's awesome, Jake! Congratulations on being so close to finishing! I just started Year 1 a few months ago after discovering the plan and I'm very excited to start this journey.

      I've read the entire core set of the Great Books of the Western World and all the Harvard Classics. It took me almost 30 years

    Books are lovely if you got stranded in the long traffic, bank lines, or waiting for your tardy mates

    Great content. The gentleman on the right should lose the vocal fry, he is better than that.

      Perhaps he has a problem with his vocal chords... perhaps like Robert Kennedy? It may just be his voice.

    I’m sure that these are intelligent men. And I agree that reading the classics is a worthwhile and enriching project. But their arguments here were contradictory, uninformed, and come across as largely patting themselves on the back for being so sophisticated.

      An astute interpretation, and arguably holds some truth.

    interesting. But not interested by the religious christian angle. Those books are mostly not religious. And beard guy is handsome😊

    The guy on the right, practice articulating better so that the voice isn't so gutteral. It's hard to listen to after a while.
