Letters From a Stoic by Seneca - a podcast by Jeff Brandwein and Joe Arko

Seneca was born in Spain, lived much of his life in Rome, and was the advisor to several emperors. He was exiled, fell deathly ill, brought back to advise again, and eventually died under Nero.

As one of the original stoic thinkers, his wisdom is timeless. His advice hasn't gone stale in the 2,000 years since it was written.

Seneca spent a lifetime working out the best ways to think, to live and to get meaning from life.

This episode deals with life, death, illness, boredom and acceptance.
