This week, Thomas Whitley (http://www.thomaswhitley.com/about) and Sam Harrelson (http://samharrelson.com/) discuss syllabi (or syllabuses as Thomas advocates), the most educated cities in the US, trigger warnings and political correctness, consecrated virgins, and whether Eve came from Adam's rib or his ... baculum.
