  • A Graduate Class in Shakespeare

    I’m not an English teacher or professor, but I have always loved watching Shakespeare’s play. This podcast is akin to an exegesis of Shakespeare’s world and interpretation. I am never bored and learn from every episode. I’m looking forward to seeing my next play with all this knowledge to inform my experience. more
