Men with Chests
We have nearly forgotten what it means to be Men with Chests, and the consequences are all around us. Join me as we explore the Great Books, as we go back to the timeless ideas that built the West. In this show we pursue objective truth, goodness, and beauty; we learn about virtue as excellence (arete). We discuss the role that reason, emotion and desire all play in becoming a magnanimous man.

Jordan Duncan from the Lesser-Known Lewis podcast joins me to discuss Lewis's essay "The Poison of Subjectivism."
The finale of "On Ethics." An essay where Lewis makes the case for the universality of an ethical code.
We continue our way through Lewis's essay "On Ethics," as he explores the possibility of an ethical vacuum and the idea of instinct as the grounds of ethics.
We begin a short series today on Lewis's essay "On Ethics." This essay is remarkably similar to Abolition of Man, even containing some of the same phrases found in Abolition.
We finish Screwtape's toast. Lewis continues to draw out the implications of envy disguised as being "democratic." When "I'm as good as you" becomes the motto a society aims to actualize, disaster follows.

"Screwtape Proposes a Toast" is an essay of Lewis's that deals with the issue of egalitarianism in education. This essay, written after The Abolition of Man and That Hideous Strength, continues on the theme of Lewis's most prophetic writings. In this episode, we cover the preface of the essay, written late in Lewis's life (1962).
