A books and ideas podcast with Flagg Taylor. From the unjustly neglected, to the underappreciated, to the oft-cited but seldom read, to the just plain obscure, we aim to give important books and essays of enduring interest a wider audience. Some works will allow us to revisit permanent questions, while others might provide a unique perspective on a very contemporary problem. We hope to educate and entertain and take listeners away from the pressure of the present and the new.

To lead into the next season of Enduring Interest, we're re-releasing our first two seasons, covering totalitarianism and ideology and liberal education. We'll be back on September 8 with a new season covering free speech and censorship.
This episode concludes our series on liberal education. We have three of our previous guests in the series back to discuss some common themes in the work of Leo Strauss, Michael Oakeshott and Hannah Arendt. We have Michael and Catherine Zuckert, Rita Koganzon, and Elizabeth Corey all returning to the podcast for the discussion. Topics include the place of reverence and tradition in liberal education, the authority of the teacher, and the purpose or purposes of liberal education. See our previous episodes for the bios of these guests.
