The history of humanity before civilization is populated by an array of cultures throughout the millennia and across the continents. The earliest humans followed diverse customs and survival strategies, explored the unknown, adapted to exotic ecosystems, thrived in good times, and fell into oblivion in others. This podcast relates that story, starting with the origin of our species and tracing the development of human life before written records.

The Ancient Art of Leadership and Power.

Jeremiah 6:16 "Thus says the LORD: "Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls." The ancient way is not just for those who lived "back then"- it is for you and for me now. It is a reality that surrounds us at all times, and that reality is very supernatural. It is not just myths, fairy tales, and old stories. It is a vibrant part of every persons life- hidden right in plain sight. Can you see it? All you have to do is ask.

A history podcast with a mix of narration and discussion. We also have guests. Hosted by David.

Welcome to the Class. Here, we'll explore some of the most influential/classical books and documents ever written on political philosophy, Religion, Literature, and more. Most importantly, we will try to understand their modern relevance.
This podcast serves two primary purposes, which I'd like to refer to as my "dual motivations." Firstly, it fulfills a personal and somewhat self-serving objective: to archive all the valuable insights and teachings I've received from my professor Ron Cline.
Secondly, I aim to safeguard Professor Ron's wisdom for not only my benefit but also for yours and that of future generations. The core concept involves creating an avenue for revisiting and absorbing his profound guidance whenever the need arises.
It's worth noting that this intention extends beyond Professor Ron's contributions; I am committed to earnestly preserving the teachings of any guest/educators who will appear on the podcast.
Yours, student
