Thank you for replying! Alas, no, not in Maryland! I am in Texas. Curious what other writers/podcasts you listen to? I am enjoying PK, obviously, but also Jonathan Pageau, Paul VanderKlay, Jordan Peterson, Michael Matheson Miller @ The Moral Imagination podcast, and The Scholé Sisters podcast. ETA: This is still Tiffany, but apparently I logged in through my writing Substack account, ha!

Longtime listener of Pageau too! Also been into Why Are We Talking about Rabbits and the Lord of Spirits podcast. I like Peterson too --and now your comment is making me want to finally check out Paul VanderKlay because I hear abt him all the time. Reading-wise, Front Porch Republic and Glory to God for All Things (Fr. Stephen Freeman). The Ethics of Beauty--book I should start rereading anytime now--changed my whole direction. In recent months though I’ve really been drastically cutting down media consumption to make space for more quiet time--and mostly reading American literature for the survey course I’m teaching to my teens. My kids are 16, 14, and 11, and we’re Orthodox, BTW.

Erika--Would love to connect with you through email! You can email me at throughpaperdoors at protonmail dot com and we can trade contact info. I have listened to Lord of Spirits occasionally and would love to check out the Ethics of Beauty book. I read some writing on aesthetics and beauty by Sir Roger Scruton not too long ago and have been contemplating beauty a lot more because of it. I too am trying to cut down on media time--gave up Twitter for Lent--and I love the idea of more quiet. My kids are 13, 10 and 6, and we are Catholic. Hope to hear from you if you're interested! :-)
