AK47 Season 2 Episode 36: Our Experience As Talbot Philosophy Students

Aaron and Kyle come back together to discuss our experience studying philosophy at Talbot.  We talk about why we decided to go to Talbot, whether or not Talbot can help you achieve your goals in academia or ministry, what the philosophy professors there are like, our experience with the community at the campus, and some reasons why one may not want to attend Talbot.  We hope this will be useful for those who are thinking about going to Talbot for philosophy.
