Lately I have found an interest in philosophy. I would love to dig deeper into it when I get the time.

I just started reading Seneca’s Letters from a stoic and plan to read Tao te Ching next, as I always wanted to implement thoughts from Stoicism and Taoism in my life.

I’m aware that, randomly reading different philosophical works won’t give me much in-depth knowledge.

I want to know what’s a good way to go about it and the resources I could use.

    I really dig Philosophize This

    Not as in-depth as reading books of course, but it’s very pleasant to listen to and you’ll get a rough overview of who’s who and can then go on to reading something referenced in the podcast that interests you.

      Agreed, it was my gateway to philosophy. It’s gives you a good idea of who the most famous philosophers were, and their greatest contributions. It’s very superficial, because you can only say so much in a 20 minutes format, but it’s a great start to find who you want to get into.

      I want to thank you so much for suggesting this. I’m almost caught up with all the episodes of the podcast and I’m hooked. I just wish I had the time to follow up each episode with supplementary reading.

      P.S: sorry for necroposting !
