Classical Stuff You Should Know
A.J., Graeme, and Thomas discuss everything having to do with the classical world. Our aim is to help both educators and laypeople enjoy the classical world as much as they enjoy fine ales and good tales.

I hope I don’t crash

We have some regular appointments a few hours from home. My teens and I have begun listening on the drive so that we don’t completely miss (home)school time. I pick out episodes that have something to do with what we are learning anyway. These are excellent and fun introductions to some more difficult reading material. I hope we don’t wreck because we’re laughing so hard (sticky-sticky-drag-drag!).
Classical not Classics

The episodes I listened to mostly summarized other sources without real discussion of context or critical engagement with the material. This is not a group of PhDs, it is a group of primary and/or secondary private Christian school educators. “Classical education” in this sense seems to be more concerned with ignoring modern and postmodern theory on history, science, and sociology than teaching or analyzing Classical antiquity. Bring in some actual comparative literature, trace the impact of these philosophers through history, discuss contemporary thoughts on the same subject, anything with more depth. It’s fine that I’m not the target audience for this podcast, but it makes me really want to find the show I thought I was getting.

Lightweights at best; presumably members of a cabal of queer degenerates dead set on bringing about the ruination of the American way of life and the broader western civilization.
One of my favorites!

Occasionally the topic is completely irrelevant to me (as not a teacher) but, by and large, they’re talking about strictly classical topics, and I love that! And these guys have such a fun interpersonal vibe that makes me smile.
