Episode 17 - Stoicism Part I: Is it pragmatic? w/ Thomas Dixon

Published: June 20, 2019, 2:38 a.m.

It is episode 17 of the Knowing You Know Nothing podcast. This week we are revisiting with Thomas Dixon (Ep. 10 Philosophy of Friendship and Ep. 13 Death, Dying, and Grief) to discuss the philosophy of stoicism. Again, neither of us claim to be deeply knowledgeable in this school of thought, but we are attempting to gain a deeper understanding of the topic by utilizing this episode as an introduction to the topic. We had a great discussion until technical issues delayed this episode for a part II (coming soon). We were mainly discussing what stoicism means to us, it's root meaning, and is it pragmatic (practical) in our contemporary lives. Enjoy!
