John and Dr. Jackson take a dive into classical ed and look at the philosophical underpinnings of education as a whole. They also talk about the current education paradigm and maybe what needs to change for the future.

--- This “Enlightened” New World utopia isn’t turning out to be all it was cracked up to be. Society is disenchanting, but are the only alternatives hiding out in the hills or burying yourself in books? With an air of levity and a touch of humor, John Heers teaches how to examine the confusing New World by calling upon the mind and wisdom of oft-forgotten Old. Heavy Things, Lightly. ---
