The Karl Schudt Show

A continuation of my reading and commentary on Aristotle's Politics. Aristotle's thoughts on the relationship of masters and slaves, and then some talk on the acquisition of wealth.

I uploaded the wrong audio, and nobody told me. I'm sorry! This is the continuation of the talk about the Politics. Enjoy!

Neil Gaiman misquotes Chesterton at the beginning of Coraline, and I want to correct the misquote. Here's what Chesterton really said about fairy tales. This is a brief episode reading Chestorton's original essay from Tremendous Trifles to you.

A continuation of my commentary on the Politics. You can dive right in or go back and listen to the first two in this series. Lots of good stuff about the household and the relation of masters to subordinates.

Take a little time to listen to this gem of an essay about the problem of noise in a small town. I was motivated when I went to get gas and the pump started playing music and advertizements at me. Consider this to be my rebellion!

This episode was fated before the dawn of time. Some reference to the works of Gabriel Marcel, Democritus, Epictetus, and some others I've forgotten.

Ukuleles, Plato, Socrates, Aesop, talking animals, tyrants, and more! Perhaps Socrates talks about Aesop in the Phaedo because all along they were doing the same thing.

A continuation of a read-through and discussion of Benjamin Jowett's translation of Aristotle's Politics. Today we figure out if man is the political animal. I hope not! Also some complaints about wifi printers and eremetic longings.

In which I read through and comment on Aristotle's politics. Also a little Minecraft talk.

A rare theological episode on the concept of unceasing prayer, as commanded by St. Paul, found in the anonymous book "The Way of a Pilgrim."
