History, economics, the great works of literature, the meaning of the U.S. Constitution. Did you study these things in school? Probably not. Or even if you did, maybe it's time for a refresher. Time and technology have changed a lot of things, but they've not changed the basic fundamental truths about the world and our place in it. Hillsdale College is offering more than 40 free online courses.
That's right, more than 40 free online courses. Learn about the works of C.S. Lewis, the stories in the book of Genesis, the meaning of the U.S. Constitution, the rise and fall of the Roman Republic, or the history of the ancient Christian church with Hillsdale College's free online courses.
Personally, I'm enjoying Hillsdale's course, The Second World Wars, taught by Victor Davis Hanson and Hillsdale's president, Larry P. Arnn. This free seven-lecture course will help you understand this massive and complex conflict
In a new way, it will give you a clear picture of why the war was fought and how the Allied powers ultimately triumphed in order to save the West from a new form of tyranny. The course is self-paced so that you can start whenever and wherever. Go right now to hillsdale.edu.

This is the Victor Davis Hanson Show. I'm Jack Fowler, the man lucky enough to be the host and to ask Victor the kind of questions I think you would want him to answer. We are recording on... Sunday, February 23rd.
And this particular episode will be up on Thursday, the 27th. Who is Victor Davis Hanson? He is the Martin and Ely Anderson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution and the Wayne and Marsha Buskey Distinguished Fellow in History at Hillsdale College, where I think he's going to be in a couple of days.
Yes. Yes, I'm going to go to a military history conference. And on the 4th? Wait. 5th, 6th, 4th, I'm going to give a talk on Hollywood World War II movies. Oh! Yes, I am. Well, do talk about... My three favorite, I'm going to say, are George Patton and Das Boot. And then one that nobody likes, but I do like it, and that's The Bridge Too Far. That is a very good movie.
I would have picked Battleground, and they were expendable. But that's, you know, everyone to each their own. Well, okay. Well, Victor, you're here. We have so many topics to get your wisdom on. I think we'll start off with Democrat madness. Then there's a bunch of really important Trump executive orders and actions that are so heartening.
And maybe if we have time at the end, there's so much craziness going on in California. You happen to live there. So we will get to all this when we come back from these important messages. Running a small business means you're wearing a lot of hats. Your personal phone number becomes your business phone. And before you know it, you're juggling customer calls day and night.
