Welcome to The Spinoza Triad. We are a group of seasoned educators who like to discuss philosophy, culture and any big ideas which interest us. These podcasts are aimed at anyone who enjoys philosophy. Please join us and share in our enthusiasm as we grope around in the great ideas of the world. We aim to be amusing, illuminating and on occasion, thought- provoking. Listen as we fail in the attempt.

Listen to these gentlemen share their thoughts on great philosophers and how their work translates in our modern world. The discussions range from amusing to poignantly wise, and everything in between. A great treatment of the material.
