Customer Reviews
Thought provoking and engaging podcast
I have enjoyed listening to this podcast each week. It has had me examining my life in light of the proverbial wisdom discussed, and spurring me on to read more wisdom literature. The pace of the show allows for contemplation, which is rather hard to find: in many of the shows I enjoy, the speakers speak, and move through ideas, quickly. I really appreciate Joshua’s storytelling and reflections from his own experiences.
