S3 E1: Paul Ulrich, Allan Bloom and Higher Education

The Free Mind Podcast explores philosophic and political ideas with adventurous disregard for intellectual trends. Listeners are invited to pull up a chair in an intellectual laboratory where rationally defensible arguments are tested in the spirit of truth-seeking, and made in a conversational style free of academic jargon. The podcast engages scholars and public intellectuals who seek to present a diversity of viewpoints in a venue where good faith is granted at the door, and clear expression of ideas is more important than adherence to any particular ideology.
