Listen "Friendship Episode 2: Epictetus"
Episode Synopsis
On Episode 2 of From What We Gathered, we present the Stoic ideal of friendship through the teachings of Epictetus. In Stoicism, living a life of virtue means maintaining focus on wisdom, temperance, courage and justice at all times to live a life of true flourishing, whether this includes friends or not. We'll spend a good chunk of the episode contrasting Aristotle's teachings so you too can muse over which ideas resonate most with you. Both, one-or-the-other, neither? It's part of the fun of considering various philosophies!
