In this episode of God on the Move, Dr. John Mark Reynolds shares his vision of providing debt-free one-on-one education in low-income neighborhoods, inspired by his faith in Orthodox Christianity and the educational traditions of the West. Dr. Reynolds delves into the historical and philosophical roots of Western education, reflecting on how progressive and vocational emphases have shifted the focus away from the classical education that once dominated. He recounts his personal journey into Orthodoxy, influenced by his upbringing as a pastor's kid and his academic career in philosophy. Dr. Reynolds explains the significance of the Great Books tradition and its role in forming informed and critical leaders while discussing the unique ethos of Saint Constantine College and its commitment to accessible and rigorous education. As he shares his story, he emphasizes the importance of staying rooted in faith amidst intellectual pursuits and broadening one's education through classic and modern works.

Ever found yourself debating whether listening to an audiobook "counts" as reading? You're not alone. Our latest Book Bites episode dives deep into the fascinating divide between audiobooks and physical reading, revealing how our brains process information in surprisingly different ways.Susie and Kylee sit on opposite ends of the reading spectrum – one connects more deeply through audiobooks, while the other needs the physical page to truly absorb a story. This fundamental difference leads to a fascinating conversation about how we each uniquely process information.The discussion covers everything from narrators who make or break audiobooks (with strong opinions on certain Irish accents!), to which genres work better in audio format versus text. Non-fiction and books with extensive character lists often shine as audiobooks, while complex fantasy with intricate worldbuilding might benefit from the ability to flip back pages for reference. Speed listeners will appreciate the debate on whether 1.5x or 2x is the sweet spot for audiobook consumption.What emerges most clearly? There's no wrong way to enjoy literature. So tell us – are you Team Audiobook, Team Physical Book, or happily enjoying both worlds? Your brain might just be wired for one more than the other!Support the showEditing done by Connor Luther @clfilms.coMusic by @thundercatlouisMerch Here

With his fantastic new book, EMINENT JEWS (Holt), writer and critic David Denby explores the impact on American culture of Jews Unbound through profiles of Leonard Bernstein, Mel Brooks, Betty Friedan, and Norman Mailer. We talk about how he selected his four subjects, how each of them came of age in an environment that Jews hadn't experienced in millennia, the ways each handled the responsibilities of family against their careers, the difference between "Jew" and "Jewish," and which one unfolded the most to him over the course of writing the book. We get into why Bernstein's greatest role may have been as a teacher, how Mailer's magnetism persisted way beyond its expiration date, how Friedan changed the world but was always challenged by her midwest upbringing, and whether Brooks was being disingenuous when he made musical numbers of our the Inquisition and Hitler. We also discuss judgements David made over the course of his career as a movie critic, what he did when he finally gave up reviewing and how he eased back into the cinema, why he revisited the Lit Hum course at Columbia a few years ago, after previously revisiting it 30+ years ago for Great Books, his take on my my lightning round of classic lit questions, his non-Le Carré experience in East Berlin, his reaction to my parents taking me to History of the World: Part 1 when I was 9, and more.

Can we find the poet in their poems? With HORACE: Poet on a Volcano (Yale University Press), Peter Stothard explores how the life of the great Roman poet unfolds though his art and the histories. We talk about why he wrote this biography through a critical study of Horace's poems (and why that's been a controversial approach), how Horace embodied the artist-as-madman long before the Romantic era, and why it was important to show the alienness of Horace's verse and how nervous Peter was about translating him into English to show how the Latin works. We get into Horace's place in Rome's history, how he bridged Greek poetic modes into Latin, the variety of genres Horace worked in (and invented), and why the poet was cancelled early and often over the centuries. We also discuss mortality and legacy, how Horace & I each reacted to not getting killed by falling trees, why a certain Great Books program is so Athens-centric, how Peter's secondary school introduced him to "INCIPE!," "Sapere Aude," and "Carpe Diem," among other Horace-isms, and more!

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss reactions to former FBI director James Comey's Instagram post of the numbers “8647” spelled out using seashells on the beach, which some have interpreted as a threat aimed at President Trump. Also, current FBI director Kash Patel says he will move 1,500 agents out of Washington, and that the FBI will leave the Hoover Building in downtown DC. They also talk about the politics behind a House resolution introduced by Rep. Summer Lee (D.-PA) yesterday designed to give reparations to descendants of American slaves. PLUS this week's “You Can't Be Serious” – a look at the most outrageous statements or events of the past week.

And lastly, RCP contributor Maggie Miller talks to journalist John Murawski about his recent reporting on the University of Austin (UATX) and the School of Civic Leadership at the University of Texas. Both are part of a growing national movement hoping to revive classical education by emphasizing the Great Books, free markets, and individual liberty.

John J. Miller brings the Great Books podcast to a close.

Playwrights and RSC artistic directors Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor discuss the updates they've been making to all their scripts (including All the Great Books (abridged), featuring Doug Harvey, Tré Zijuan Tyler, and Michael Faulkner, below) and how their writing process begins with coming up with material that's personal resonant. Martin and Tichenor reveal the despair of artists listening to the mortgage when evaluating their work; how not all laughs are created equal; how the great job of making people laugh now feels like an supremely important job; and how hearing the audience gasp at the turns in the narrative is even more satisfying to us. (Length 24:21) The post Funny To Us appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

John J. Miller is joined by Peter Meilaender of Houghton University to discuss 'The Sorrows of Young Werther' by Goethe.

Rhonda Ortiz had roots in Evangelical experience, including some in Pentecostalism, but a search for a Christian home during her college years led her to begin exploring the Catholic Faith. Her love for and study of the “Great Books” of history helped further point her toward Catholic ideas, and meeting her husband, who was going through the same kind of awakening of faith, was a crucial step in her decision to enter the Catholic Church. She now uses her gifts as a writer and editor of novels and other forms of literature.

Alex Petkas, host of the Cost of Glory, talks to Timon and Ben about the right use of the classics.   #AlexPetkas #CostofGlory #Classics #Plutarch #ClassicalEduation #Education   Show Notes: https://americanmind.org/salvo/great-books-is-for-losers/   Alex Petkas is a former Classics scholar turned media entrepreneur. He holds a PhD in Classics from Princeton University. He taught at the University of California, San Diego, and California State University, Fresno. He has published research on many subjects, including classical Athenian oratory, late ancient rhetoric and education, and epistle writing. His research on the ancient media technologies of writing (especially letters) led him to take an active interest in the Classics in modern New Media. His years of experience teaching at Paideia's Living Greek in Greece program led him to a particular interest in the oral nature of classical texts. His day job is in marketing.   Learn more about Alex Petkas's work at: https://x.com/costofglory https://www.costofglory.com/ https://www.paideiainstitute.org/apetkas   ––––––   Follow American Reformer across Social Media: X / Twitter – https://www.twitter.com/amreformer Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/AmericanReformer/ YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@AmericanReformer Rumble – https://rumble.com/user/AmReformer Website – https://americanreformer.org/   Promote a vigorous Christian approach to the cultural challenges of our day, by donating to The American Reformer: https://americanreformer.org/donate/   Follow Us on Twitter: Josh Abbotoy – https://twitter.com/Byzness Timon Cline – https://twitter.com/tlloydcline   The American Reformer Podcast is  hosted by Josh Abbotoy and Timon Cline, recorded remotely in the United States, and edited by Jared Cummings.   Subscribe to our Podcast, "The American Reformer" Get our RSS Feed – https://americanreformerpodcast.podbean.com/ Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-american-reformer-podcast/id1677193347 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/1V2dH5vhfogPIv0X8ux9Gm?si=a19db9dc271c4ce5

What's the real purpose of education? Is it just about passing tests—or passing the torch of civilization itself?In this episode, Dr. Louis Markos, professor, prolific author, and champion of classical Christian education, returns to share insights from his new book, Passing the Torch: An Apology for Classical Christian Education. Drawing from Plato to C.S. Lewis, he makes the compelling case that education is soul formation, not social engineering—and classical Christian education is the only model robust enough to raise morally self-regulating, virtuous citizens.Discover why reading the great books is more than academic—it's civilizational. Learn how truth, goodness, and beauty still anchor us in a culture adrift. And be encouraged: this is not a nostalgic movement—it's a necessary revival for the future.
