Nolan's Odyssey: How do we Engage Art? | Annie Crawford

Saison 4

mardi 18 août 2026 • Durée 01:21:25

Why are some classicists loving Nolan's Odyssey movie, and others are hating it? Is it possible for an institution that has betrayed us as much as Hollywood to still give us true stories? How does the way we experience this movie teach us about how to engage with art in general? We discussed questions like these and more as we sat down with the incomparable Annie Crawford for her take on Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey and her thoughts on how to faithfully engage with art, both old and new.

Adam Taylor | To Be Called Classical or to Not Be Called Classical, That is the Question

Saison 3

jeudi 18 juin 2026 • Durée 01:06:58

In this conversation Patrick and Amanda sit down with recurring guest Adam Taylor to discuss the controversial issue of calling TCT a "classical" curriculum. When the title "classical" is claimed by such a diverse range of schools as the Lost Tools of Learning crowds, secular charter programs, and people like us who are seeking to transmit the poetic mode of learning, it can feel like it has nearly lost it's meaning entirely. On the one hand, we are not quite ready to give it up because the poetic mode harkens to us from antiquity. On the other hand, we are playing around with the idea of being a "medieval model" program as a means of clarifying and distinguishing what Tradition we are working within. Whether you are someone who has been in the classical renewal for a long time, or someone who is in danger of not giving TCT a chance because your perception of classical education is not positive, we hope this conversation will give you some worthy thoughts for consideration. We also hope you will join the conversation by leaving your thoughts on this topic below!

On Losing Wonder

Saison 3

jeudi 4 juin 2026 • Durée 25:52

Wonder is often what first draws us to classical education. The ideas are fresh, the vision is beautiful, and reality seems alive with meaning. But what happens when that initial excitement begins to fade? In this video, Patrick Faus explores the relationship between poetic knowledge and wonder, drawing heavily from Dennis Quinn's Iris Exiled. He’ll examine why wonder is the beginning of education, why it often diminishes through familiarity and analysis, and whether it can be recovered and sustained over time. If wonder is the beginning of education, how do we preserve it throughout life?

Teaching as a Feast: How to Win Over Reluctant Students

Saison 3 · Épisode 25

mercredi 18 mars 2026 • Durée 22:34

In this episode, Patrick explores the metaphor of education as a feast, drawing on the rich tradition of classical education that sees learning as a nourishing meal for the mind and soul. What do we do when a child resists learning or lacks enthusiasm for what is good, true, and beautiful? Patrick reflects on how parents and teachers can continue to offer a rich educational “table” even when students are hesitant to partake. This conversation is especially helpful for homeschooling parents, classical educators, and families seeking a poetic approach to education. Discover how cultivating an atmosphere of wonder, beauty, and truth can gently awaken a child’s love of learning over time.
