Good morning glory America,

Bonshore High, Canada.

That music means it's the last radio hour of the week. We take a break now.

Even after the conventions, even after all the politicking has begun, we take a break every week at this hour, the last hour on Friday's program to go high and to go long and this week I'm doing so with Professor Daniel O'Toole of Hillsdale College.

He is back as we make our way through the Republic of Plato.

We are using this edition, the second edition of the Republic of Plato,

translated by Alan Bloom.

There is both a forward and an end note

that we will get to eventually.

But Dr. O'Toole, welcome back.

I hope you're having a good summer and doing so with us as part of a duty you probably didn't

anticipate, but it's going very well.
