Well hello everybody welcome back to the Supplementalist. We hope that you are all having a fantastic 2025 so far. In todays episode we are taking our first foray into the greatest of all English writers, the inestimable William Shakespeare. We are going to be looking at brief selection of his sonnets. Here is a list (not necessarily in the order we cover them)

  • 30, 73 (aging/ regret)
  • 91 (heartbreak)
  • 29 (jealousy)
  • 106 (time)
  • 27 (weary)
  • 18, 116 (love/ most popular)

We hope that you took some time and read and/or listened to them, and that our conversation is helpful.
