This one is for all of you interested in Stoic theory.

In this conversation, Caleb and Scott Aikin discuss objections to Stoicism.
Scott defends a revisionary kind of Stoicism. In some places, Caleb questions how revisionary it is – is Scott just restating things the ancients solved already? In other places, Caleb questions whether it’s too revisionary to work – do we need an account of nature after all? Scott responds.
Listen and work through the problems yourself.
