  • A valuable treasure!

    So excited to listen through this series. I heard some of the newer ones and just went back to start (2020). I’m learning so much through these conversations. Really enjoying the book recommendations too. Thanks for all the work you’re doing for the educational renaissance! I’m so thankful and happy to see how much support is out there. The future is bright. <3

  • Dr. Alexander interview

    This interview by Jeremy was interesting and informative. It was nice to hear a professor from a top tier public university, UVA, discuss censorship in common sensical ways.

  • Better Fact Checking

    Massachusetts schools did not “ban” The Odyssey. The movement in question was advocating more diverse perspectives in literature, the complete opposite of what you imply. Choosing to move The Odyssey to other grade levels or even not include it in a curriculum is a completely different thing than a ban, like those we see from brain dead GOP governors. Kind of sounds like some both sides nonsense to help push a moral panic about “wokeness” whether you mean it to or not

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence | Lily Abadal
Q: If you had to pick a single book that shaped you most, what would it be?
Augustine's Confessions, translated by Thomas, is cited as the single most formative book for the guest, praised for its enduring influence and emotional impact.
Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence | Lily Abadal
Q: Tell us about some of the things you're doing in the classroom.
The guest describes a scaffolded writing approach called Drafted Scaffolded Writing for Slow Thinking, where students read primary texts in class, formulate problem statements, craft thesis statements, revise them, and map out arguments with peer review, enabling real-time dialogue and deeper thinking.
Rediscovering America’s Story Through Fables | Matt Mehan
Q: Who is the intended audience for the book, and how might schools use it?
The book is structured for multiple age groups, from nursery rhymes to mid-level fables and higher-level dialogues, enabling teachers to integrate it across curricula and foster discussions about the Declaration, the American founding, and shared virtues.
Rediscovering America’s Story Through Fables | Matt Mehan
Q: Why use fables and the animal metaphor to teach about the founding and civic virtue?
Fables provide visceral, memorable images that train the moral imagination; they allow for nuanced character studies and moral puzzles, helping readers see that virtue is complex and requires thoughtful discernment, which aligns with teaching self-governance and civic responsibility.
Rediscovering America’s Story Through Fables | Matt Mehan
Q: Tell us about the academic journey at UD and how it shaped your later work.
The rigorous core curriculum at UD nurtured a shared, high-level dialogue among students and professors, forming a deep foundation in classical texts, writing, and critical discussion that later informed my approach to education and civic memory.
