Does anyone know what that instrument is in the opening? The one thats real raspy.

Why is a woman educating people on the art of manliness? Honour for women is not even a concept. Its just a variation of "Chastity".

Her voice is so, so annoying, I'm sorry, I shoudn't care about that but I could not ignore it. I found very curious that for some seconds her voice changed pitch and became ok, donn't know where that came from but I wish that would have been a permanet condition of the audio... also the talk is all over the place, way too long...

Dude...that voice.  I came so close to switching to another podcast but my phone was in my bag.

I talk to professor of classical history Carlin Barton about her book Roman Honor: The Fire in the Bones. Honor has played a huge role manliness across time and cultures. Professor Barton and I discuss what honor meant to the Romans, how it governed their lives, and what it meant to Roman masculinity. Professor Barton explains the how the Romans distinguished males from men and how a male gained status as a "man" and the role male extendibility had in that process. Later on in our conversation, we talk about the decline of honor in Ancient Rome and the rise of philosophies like Stoicism during the civil wars and the rise of the Roman Empire. It's a fascinating discussion.
