Description
Woah. This episode has everything. Explore the final Stoic virtue in our series, perhaps the crowning virtue which is wisdom. We explore the questions what does it mean to be wise?
Do you have to be old to be wise? We also have some very entertaining stories of a Mexican village who is given the choice between indoor plumbing and a Mariachi band, what they chose may surprise you.
We also talk about Bruce’s failed attempted to conquer the world in a game of Risk because of an untrustworthy ally and what that can teach us about the nature of the opposite of wisdom, namely foolishness.
We get into what makes good advice and bad advice (and it’s wisdom.) For our Stoic Reimagining we have our first ever remix which you won’t want to miss.
