    Bryan Caplan on Epicureanism, Agency, and Self-Help (Episode 158)

    Bryan Caplan, economist and bestselling author, discusses practical wisdom from modern economics and ancient philosophy. He argues against medicalization of human behavior, champions personal agency, and reveals why appeasement often beats confrontation. Caplan shows how lessons from economics can serve as self-help and why creating a "social bubble" – the modern version of an Epicurean garden – might be the smartest way to navigate modern life. The conversation spans Epicurean and Stoic perspectives on death, social obligations, and the thinker Thomas Szasz.

    Spencer Klavan on Science vs. Religion (and Why the Stoics Were Not Materialists) (Episode 155)

    Has Science proven that the world is nothing more than a physical machine without overarching purpose? Spencer Klavan's most recent book answers with an emphatic no. Ancient philosophy and modern science reveal that the worldview of materialism is not enough. Instead, our picture of the world must include mind as a fundamental ingredient – just as the Stoic and Christian worldviews do.

    Why Most Things Do Not Matter: Indifferents (Episode 154)

    What if the things you obsess over daily don't ultimately matter? The ancient Stoics had a radical idea: most of what we chase - wealth, fame, even health - is neither good nor bad. They called these things "indifferents." In this episode, Caleb reads his short piece on indifferents and adds additional commentary.
