So what’s the point of this thing?

The key to wisdom is this—constant and frequent questioning, for by doubting we are led to question and by questioning we arrive at the truth.

Peter Abelard


We all want to get wiser, but we don’t have the time to read every book about every topic from every philosopher that has ever lived.

Instead, spend five minutes a week learning what history’s greatest thinkers have said about important issues so you can be the wisest person in your circle.

Here’s a small handful of topics we’ll cover: Meaning, Anxiety, Identity, Religion, Love, Relationships, Politics, Grief, and so many more.


Subscribe now because, as Socrates (basically) said, “The unsubscribed life is not worth living.”
