We’ll Always Have Paris (and this Classics Episode)

About this episode

The episode discusses various classics in literature and film, offering guidance on what to read and watch.

Everyone has their thoughts on “The Classics” and more often than not will express these thoughts without prompting. This episode is of course no different but with the added benefit of being less obnoxious than that person in the office judging you because you’ve never read “Meditations”. We’re going to look at the Classics we’ve read and watched, sort through the good and the bad and the ones that are definitely worth your time. It can be overwhelming to decide where to start, but with our guidance in hand you can form your own opinions about what makes a classic and who gets to decide. Tell us which classics you always recommend! Send an email to thestorybuildingpod@gmail.com and follow us on Instagram @thestorybuildingpod
