Ross Garner and Michael Conklin introduce Mentor, formerly The Statesman, the podcast for American classical leadership education affiliated with John Adams Academy. They explain that the purpose of the podcast is not to create an ivory tower book club, but to have down-to-earth discussions of great books for the benefit of average Americans. They share experiences from the classroom and their personal lives of the impact classical education has had on them and how they came to love and appreciate great books.
