Such a blessing

This podcast has helped me in my education more than I can express. As a Year 12 student it had been invaluable in guiding me through books like Paradise Lost and The Divine Comedy. Every episode is brimming with wisdom and lively discussion. I never finish an episode without learning something, whether that be something about classical education, the human soul, great books, Western history or theology. Thank you for the work you guys do.
