https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=6600631 William Ferraiolo is a professor of philosophy at San Joaquin Delta College in California. He is a big fan of Stoicism. We talk about Stoicism, how Cynicism led to it, aspects of Postmodernism that I like but clash with Stoicism, and the similarities and differences between Stoicism and Pragmatism. We also briefly discuss politics and Jordan Peterson.
