Matthias Cicotte, better known to his friends as J. Reuben Clark, is a lawyer, homeschooler, & poster of good tweets. He is developing a series of history books for children based on classical sources (Plutarch's Lives, Caesar's Conquest of Gaul, etc). We discuss:

• why literally any homeschool arrangement is better than public school
• carving out room for boys in feminized education
• the wastefulness of pushing kids (& adults) beyond their cognitive maturity
• navigating the decline & fall of the empire, the future of BYU
• the sportsbro, and what can be done about him
