Hi and welcome to classical stuff you should know.

My name is A.J. Hanenberg and I'm joined with Graham Donaldson.

Hello.

Hello. And Thomas Magby.

Hi.

And this is a podcast about what I think and what I like and only what I think.

And the most important thing

to remember about this podcast is that the opinions of Graham and Thomas don't matter at all.

At least I don't listen to them. And I do what I like and I do what I want. And that's like my

whole scene. So here's to an hour with me. Yeah. Of you. Yeah. That's great. Right here.

But deep down, you do care about what we think about you, but you hate yourself for caring what we think about you. and punishment and narcissism. And so I think that's what you're, I'm being a narcissist, you're cluing in on.

Yeah. Um, kind of what I, so, um, every year at Veritas at the school where we teach at,

we read crime and punishment. I have not been in the English class for many years.

So it's been a long time since I've taught it. And so I came back to this book this year for the first time in

like three or four years. I'm not having taught it. And it was a different class, a different

context, teaching a different place. But there was something about the main character of Raskolnikov

and his relationship with these two characters

towards the end and both of them talking about suffering that I kind of wanted to talk about

on today's episode um so we've done episodes on crime punishment going back in the in the before um

in the before times in the before times? In the before times.

Probably a couple episodes, right?

Yes.
