Brett McKay here and welcome to another edition of the Art of Manliness Podcast.

So do you know what it means when someone is said to be facing a choice between Carriptus

and Silla?

Or do you feel like your ability to think deeply about issues is hamstring because you lack

an intellectual foundation?

Or maybe do you want your intellectual life to be imbued with more texture and nuance?

Well, if you answered yes to any of those questions, then it's time you start obtaining the

Classical Education you never had.

And thanks to my guest today on the podcast, we'll show you how to get started.

Her name is Susan Wise-Bauer and she's the author of the book, The Well-Educated Mind,

a guide to the Classical Education you never had, as well as The Well-Trained Mind, a Classical

Education at home.

She's also the founder of The Well-Trained Mind Academy, where middle school and high school

students can receive a Classical Education online.

And on today's podcast, Susan and I discuss what exactly a Classical Education is, the

benefits of it, and how you can create your own Classical Education curriculum that can

fit the busiest of schedules.

We also discuss what parents of young children can do to lay a foundation of lifelong learning,

using a Classical Education pattern.

Really informative podcast.
