On today’s show, I talk with James Romm, Professor of Classics at Bard College and the author of the books Dying Every Day: Seneca at the Court of Nero, and How to Die: An Ancient Guide to the End of Life. Seneca was an influential Stoic philosopher who left us with a number of masterful works on how to live and, interestingly, he also wrote a lot about how to die.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:

0:00:00 - Intro

0:18:49 - How life can be long if we know how to use it
