    The Second Arrow (Episode 162)

    Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. In this episode, we explore a powerful Buddhist concept that mirrors Stoic wisdom: the Second Arrow. The first arrow is the pain life throws at us - rejection, loss, failure. The second arrow? That's the one we shoot at ourselves through our reactions, stories, and judgments. Michael Tremblay discusses the Buddhist parable of the second arrow and what it means for practicing Stoics. *** Subscribe to The Stoa Letter for weekly meditations, actions, and links to the best Stoic resources: www.stoaletter.com/subscribe [http://www.stoaletter.com/subscribe] Download the Stoa app (it's a free download): https://stoameditation.com/pod If you try the Stoa app and find it useful, but truly cannot afford it, email us and we'll set you up with a free account.

    Noah Rasheta on Stoicism vs. Buddhism (Episode 161)

    Author and Podcaster Noah Rasheta explores the parallels between Buddhism and Stoicism with Michael Tremblay. Whether you're seeking practical wisdom or philosophical insight, this conversation offers tools for living more skillfully – regardless of which tradition resonates with you. From handling grief and identity to achieving wisdom, we uncover where these philosophies converge and diverge.

He shares personal stories about losing his business identity and finding peace during difficult parenting moments.

    The Intuitive Case for Stoicism (Episode 159)

    Caleb Ontiveros makes the case that Stoicism is more intuitive than you might think. He argues that if minor setbacks don't ruin our lives, why should major ones? This episode explores how Stoic ideas about virtue, happiness, and adversity align with our deepest intuitions about living well. *** Subscribe to The Stoa Letter for weekly meditations, actions, and links to the best Stoic resources: www.stoaletter.com/subscribe [http://www.stoaletter.com/subscribe] Download the Stoa app (it's a free download): https://stoameditation.com/pod If you try the Stoa app and find it useful, but truly cannot afford it, email us and we'll set you up with a free account.

    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.
