The legends of great law men of history bring us back to the times of the Old West, and to violent days of gangsters and bootleggers. One such legendary law man was Frank Hamer. By exp...

Chivalry is a virtue often used to describe the codes of behavior of knights in the Middle Ages, but the essence of its meaning remains entirely relevant in modern times. It is a virtue that encompasses a series of virtues one displays for the benefit of others, such as courtesy, love, honor and loyalty. Even in this cynical age, chivalry continues to say, “This is how men should live.” One of the...

Boldness is a virtue marked by an ability and willingness to risk everything in order to accomplish something meaningful. For one to have boldness, they must overcome adversity and have the courage to keep moving forward - no matter what or who stands in their way. The virtue of boldness is so vividly captured in the life of Richard Wurmbrand. In this episode, we will take a journey through his li...

Initiative is a virtue defined by taking ownership of oneself and seeking a path of discipline rather than a path of idleness. Initiative understands our vices and the things that hold us back, but refuses to make excuses or accept defeat. One such example is Major Jordan Northrup. He would experience multiple opportunities to take initiative in his fourteen-year battle with alcoholism, which woul...

Preservation is the act of protecting a resource to promote its welfare from outside threats and intrusions. From the early 20th century to the modern day, preservationists have come in many different molds - sharing similarities and also many differing opinions on how to best preserve the wildernesses of our world. Perhaps the most famous of the 20th century’s great preservationists was John Muir...

Unity is a virtue defined by forsaking one’s own personal gain, accomplishments and goals and working with others to achieve a common goal. While there are many virtues we can accomplish alone, unity is not one of them. It is a virtue that reminds us that a single man can do amazing things, but a group can reach heights that no individual could ever hope to reach. One of the 19th century’s greates...

A taste of the Season 1 interviews with experts Martin Kemp (Leonardo da Vinci), Stephen Mansfield (Winston Churchill), and Gary Kremer (George Washington Carver). 

Innovation is a virtue marked by the creation and development of a new product, idea, process or service, with the aim of improving efficiency, effectiveness or competitive advantage. Men who display a gift for innovation are also restless and unsatisfied, because they see a better future and work to make it a reality. Such was the case with George Washington Carver. In this episode, we will see a...

Leadership is a virtue marked by the act of taking charge of a group of individuals, considering the group dynamics and executing an objective by overcoming whatever adversities stand in your way. Leadership is perhaps no better exemplified than in the example of Sir Ernest Shackleton and his infamous 1914 expedition to the Antarctic. In this episode, we will explore the expedition and how we can...

Ingenuity is a virtue marked by cleverness, craftiness and cunning. It often takes an ingenious solution to solve problems. One of the greatest examples of ingenuity in world literature is the Greek hero Odysseus. In this episode, we will explore his many trials and see what it means to foster ingenuity within ourselves. Hosted by Scott Einig with readings from The Odyssey by Stephanie Einig.

Judgment is a virtue marked by the ability to carefully consider the facts at hand, weigh all the options, and use critical thinking to make decisions based on one’s conclusions. Judgment is perhaps no better exemplified than in the life of Sir Winston Churchill. In this episode, we will explore his life and how we can use his example to make good judgment calls in our own lives. Hosted by Jamie A...

Curiosity is a virtue marked by the strong desire to know or learn something. A curious person is one who nurtures the desire and passion within themselves to know. Curiosity is perhaps no better exemplified than in the life of Leonardo da Vinci. In this episode, we will explore his life and see what it means to foster curiosity within ourselves. Hosted by Scott Einig and featuring art historian a...
