Nick's Non-fiction

Welcome back for another episode of Nick’s Non-fiction with your host Nick Muniz! For December 2019 we have Plato’s Republic. Our founding fathers were obsessed with freedom. Well the Greeks loved justice almost as much as they did prepubescent boys. Plato, Socrates and the gang theorize their version of a utopia with eery echos to real world events. The Philosopher King, The Myth of Er, The Allegory of the Cave; all timeless fables from Plato’s Republic included in this months show. Stay tuned to the end for our year in review and Season 2 Sneak Peak! A timeless text about repeating scripts that should be part of a universal education is expedited through 2019 parallels and a whole lot of humor.
