  • Hopeful and encouraging

    I have been listening to and recommending this podcast for several years, and appreciate the wide range of topics from teaching students to broader cultural ideas that impact the environment we live in. I’m struck in particular by the encouraging and humble tone. It isn’t another doom&gloom or soap box podcast, but one that seems to genuinely explore the challenges current times with hope and humility.

  • Another Insightful Podcast

    Once again Richard Moss interviewed another impressive faculty member on teaching logic to secondary students. There were similar parallels to a podcast that Richard conducted more than a year ago on the benefits of a classical education. This level of erudition reflects so positively on the Heights for the administration, faculty and students.

    It is wonderful to have Richard Moss back with the podcast! After listening to David Maxham and his exceptional discourse on the intellectual linkage of mathematics and liberal arts, one can appreciate why Richard has so many applicants to the school. The Heights faculty have such an appealing vision in how they want to teach the intellectual and concomitant spiritual foundations required to develop the next generation of leaders. swac in Calif 25 October 2021 This is a follow-on review to comme... more
