Published: April 1, 2021, 3 p.m.

William Deresiewicz writing in his essay "The Death of Friendship" makes the observation that modern day friendship is lacking in comparison to the ancients or classical friendship.  He writes, "As for the moral content of classical friendship, its commitment to virtue and mutual improvement, that, too, has been lost."  This  episode is about reclaiming the true meaning of friendship, returning to the quality look and feel the ancients experienced.
