About this listen

At 21 years old, Benjamin Franklin created a club of free thinkers. It was created out of the belief that each member would benefit. That there would be a mutual improvement among them.

At 21 years old I am creating this podcast for similar purposes. I create this now alone but in hopes to build a community of free thinkers. I plan to share my learnings from classic literature, history, and any other readings I find insightful. I hope to receive mutual improvement. Thus I call this podcast The Junto.
