Prior to the pandemic, Shreve was preparing for the End of the Weak MC competition in New York City. His appearance (like all NYC shows) is in somewhat of a holding pattern, so he's been extensively training his freestyle abilities in new ways to stay sharp. He discusses what freestyling means and how it can apply philosophically to life.

Shreve spent the early 2000s walking on to the Michael Vick led Virginia Tech football team. The experience was philosophically formative and affected how he’s approached things ever since. The walk-on mentality, he explains, can be applied to any situation where you have to create your own opportunity.

In this kickoff episode, Shreve introduces listeners to his classroom philosophy, his perspectives on teaching, and a little bit of what to expect. Since he was forced to remain apolitical for his entire university teaching career, the Professor enjoys a dive into the 2020 election and serves up his scathing takes on the Trump presidency, the modern republican party, and why the entire MAGA concept is way off course. Summarily, Shreve reminds his listeners about the importance of voting.
