Listen to the Podcast
Dear Friend,
 

You may not have noticed, but we’ve started up season two of Curriculum Vitae, the podcast of the National Association of Scholars. We have quite the line-up of guests. Just last week we released an interview with Larry Mead and in the week ahead we’ll release my discussion with Amy Wax, both extraordinary people.
 
Today, we are releasing our 40th (!!!) episode of Curriculum Vitae with my guest, Myron Magnet. Listen in as we see what’s under the cover of Myron’s new book Clarence Thomas and the Lost Constitution. Also, be sure to read my review of the book here.
 
Thomas, unlike his peers on the bench, grew up poor and in still segregated Savannah, Georgia. Myron expounds on how Thomas’ early life transformed him into the Justice we know today. Community, faith, and family played an outsized role in forming the ethic and ideology Justice Thomas practices on the bench today.
 
From Catholic seminary to radical firebrand to political philosopher, we trace the life of a young man finding himself in the world. For the rest, as we say in showbusiness, tune in.
 
Listen to the podcast here and be sure to adjust your email preferences here to get updates from yours truly anytime we release a new episode.
 
Until next time.
 

Yours,
Peter Wood
