Customer Reviews
Plato’s Republic
This Podcast was very in depth and useful for me to understand Plato’s Republic with the easy to follow instruction and fantastic examples throughout. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone whether that be a philosopher or a beginner.
Truly Educating
I listened to podcasts 38-54 over Plato’s Republic and thoroughly enjoyed all that Dr. Jaeger had to offer. These podcasts were very educational for me and extremely thought provoking.
Great Podcast!
I listened to the episodes covering The Republic while taking an ethics course on the material. It really helped deepen and solidify my understanding while breaking down the reading into easier to grasp concepts. Super thankful for this tool. Easy to understand, very thought provoking, and applicable to everyday life.
