Hi and welcome to classical stuff you should know a podcast about classical education, old books, old

ideas, how to read, literature, and how to cultivate an intellectual life.

My name is Graham Donaldson, and I am here with my two friends in learning,

AJ Hanenberg.

That's me.

And Thomas Fletcher, Megby.

Hello.

Now, gentlemen, there's a problem.

And that is, we live, we have a pretty good life, simple.

We read books.

We go to our jobs.

We love our families and loved ones.

But I've heard a rumor that a massive army is on the move.

Wow.

And it is marching towards our bucolic little existence.

But don't worry.

I've got a plan.

If they're going to get to us, there's a tiny mountain pass that they need to walk through. The renowned Texas Mountain Pass. To get to Austin,

there is this little hill country pass that they have to walk through. And we can make our famous

last ditch stand in that mountain pass. And there are no, I wouldn't, there's nobody I would rather die shoulder to shoulder with than AJ Hanenberg and Thomas Fletcher Magby. Absolutely. Let's grease ourselves up, boys. Let's get to work. I mean, we've been training for this since what we were what, like six? That's right. Yeah, absolutely.

We got stealing from neighbors.

Yes.
