254: Kristin Lavransdatter 2: "I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL"
In this episode, I admit that while I, Graeme, have some good points, A.J. is ultimately right. He's convinced me with the gravity of his intellect couched in both wit and charm. What a great guy, that A.J..

The Classical Teachers I Never Had
I love this podcast! I am classically homeschooling our 3 children and this is so helpful and interesting for someone who was public schooled and missed all this great stuff! It’s fun and the banter is right up my alley 🔥
Great stuff
I listen to the podcast on and off! It’s fun and funny! They do a good job at making classical and very old books and works entertaining! I love to learn and I’m glad these professors got together to make a great podcast!
Michael Aurelius
We (my four kids and I) love this podcast. Y’all are hilarious. We cannot wait to hear about the next Bro-off that will happen in English history. We know the War of the Roses is over but, please, can you keep going with the House of Tudor? We need to hear about Mary Queen of Scots, preferably with all the trimmings.
