  As a classical homeschooling mom this is exactly what is needed. We are bring back the quadtrivium. It is the arts of humanities with the arts of the sciences into a liberal arts education. Thank you for this conversation

  This was a gem of a discussion by two brilliant scholars. What a shame it does not have more views - ironically, the lack of views is what they touch on at the end.

  Absolute gold. Thank you, Stephen and Iain, for this exhilarating conversation. Iain’s comments in the last ten minutes or so on the demise of universities, church and the media are spots on.

  At <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyGitPDscqQ&amp;t=3210">53:30</a> it&apos;s sounds like the sound of positive self awareness. Haven&apos;t heard this tone from mcgilchrist before. What a skillful interview with a powerful intellect/empath.

  Brilliant, thank you. For anyone unfamiliar with Dr McGilchrist&apos;s work, I highly recommend his book The Master and His Emissary, which for me has been life-changing. It discusses how the lateralisation of the brain affects the way we view the world, the way we relate to one another, our attitude to the arts and culture, and some of the philosophical questions touched on here.

  The last 10 minutes are important. Well, the whole thing is important, but its conclusion is clear.
