Overdue Classics
Overdue Classics is a reading podcast dedicated to reading Classic texts, aka Great Books. CiRCE wants to invite you into the literature that has stood the test of time and remove the idea that these works are too hard or require some specialized knowledge.
Proverbial
On every episode of Proverbial, teacher and author Joshua Gibbs (How to Be Unlucky: Reflections on the Pursuit of Virtue and Something They Will Not Forget: A Handbook for Classical Teachers) explores a single proverb, some old bit of wisdom, and tries to discern what it means for modern men.

Join Dr. Christopher Perrin for lively explorations of the marvelous, traditional idea of schole and why it’s the very heart of school.
