disappointed
 Jul 10, 2022
so excited to hear a discussion on the great Joe Campbell...instead it' s sone faux mouthpiece of right wing propaganda. clearly no desire to understand Joe's philosophy. No actual talk about Joe...or the book...

Description

Welcome to Unlimited Opinions! Have you ever wanted to listen to a lawyer and his son discuss philosophy, mythology, theology, politics and more? No? Well, Mark and Adam Bishop are here to discuss it all the same! From philosophy to mythology to politics, they discuss it all with rants and tangents galore! Now in Season 12, they're discussing The Closing of the American Mind, breaking down Allan Bloom's discussion of the failures of American education! There will also be more than the average amount of references to linguistics, 80s movies, and J.R.R. Tolkien. If any of that sounds vaguely interesting, then this is the podcast for you! Episodes are uploaded every Tuesday at 7:00 a.m. CST. Follow us on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions
