How and when should you sleep? Is it over-rated or vital? How can it assist you in acing your next test?

In this, our latest foray into the confusing countryside of "modern literature," Max leads us through the popular book by Rhonda Byrne, The Secret . We discuss what few kernels of truth the book might conceal, as well as its fundamental failings concerning the nature of God and the nature of man, and by contrast highlight where we should turn to in need. Just remember, always check the dates of pennies you find on the ground! Enjoy this latest episode from David, Max, and Ben.…

We're back! In this long-overdue episode, David leads us through a delightful discussion on Michael Ward's expository work Planet Narnia . We learn all about the secret literary machinations of C. S. Lewis, age-old beliefs concerning celestial bodies, and how we can apply the seemingly esoteric wisdom of these symbols in Narnia to our everyday lives. If you are longtime Narnia fans, prepare to be astounded by new meanings we shall uncover for you (and please pardon the bits of Narnia canon we misconstrue). If you have never read Narnia, ready your mind and ears to be persuaded to add this wondrous series and Dr. Ward's charming companion to your reading pile post-haste. Enjoy!…

We're back! In this episode, David leads us through the first part of Virgil's (or Vergil's?) Aeneid . We discuss whether or not Aeneas himself is heroic and virtuous by those standards, and what we can learn from the work as a whole. David convincingly displays how the Aeneid is one of the cornerstones of modern literature, and how without this amazing work the world wouldn't be what it is today.
