Welcome to Freeman Bros, where Matt and Daniel Freeman discuss a variety of topics, a Patron-exclusive podcast show normally available for Doof Troopers and above. This week, we're joined this week by Chemistry Professor Michael. Michael listened to our previous Freeman Bros discussion of modern schooling and wanted to take a different tack by considering what young people can do to get the most out of the education system as it exists. Matt felt like Michael provided so much useful information about the education system that the right thing to do would be disseminate this episode more widely, in the hopes that others might get some value out of it. Links: The Calvert school. Let us know what you think!

This week, Matt was having eye trouble and wasn't able to watch Bahubali, so we're quickly changing things up and talking about The Boys instead! Michael joins us to talk all about season 1 and broadly talk about season 2. Full Season 1 spoilers, mild season 2 spoilers.  Next week: Bahubali: The Beginning Want to make us watch your thing?
