My friends Jon and Joe had me as a guest on their excellent libertarian / Ancap podcast www.logicalanarchy.com to talk about Stoicism.

No, I haven’t forgotten that I owe you guys another YouTube episode. Stoicism and the Big Questions: God, Fate and the Soul coming soon!

One request I received on my YouTube channel was an explanation of Stoic practice and application. How do you go beyond watching videos and use this stuff in your life? I’ve come up with a simple 5 step heuristic.

1. Primary sources
2. Scholarly analysis
3. Attention and application
4. Special Tools
   1. Writing
   2. Meditation
   3. Asceticism
5. Eternal Return

Relevant to that, I have an Amazon Idea list of recommended Stoic reading.

If you want a more structured approach, I recommend the College of Stoic Philosophers which can be found here:

We’re nearing the end of the Introduction to Stoicism video series. I hope to see you all again next week. May the Gods keep you!

Whew! I really dragged my feet on this one but, by popular request, here’s a video tour through the history of the Stoic school – from approximately 300 BC to 500 AD.

I was a little tired shooting this one and at one point my notes just ran out abruptly so I had to go off script. See you all next week!
