What is Stoicism, Really?
After more than a decade of studying and practising Stoicism, and nearly six years of teaching it, I don’t think the average person knows much more about it today than when I started. So in this episode I answer the question in the title as plainly as I can, after a few minutes of deliberately grumpy preamble meant to send away anyone who isn’t here to learn.

How to Get Over Your Ex
In this episode, I'm talking about how to get over your ex, particularly when a relationship ends that you valued more than the other person did. Breakups can be especially difficult because, unlike losing someone to death, you have to watch someone you once shared a life with go on living theirs without you.

How to Stop Masturbating
This week, I’m answering a question I genuinely never expected to cover on Practical Stoicism: how do you stop masturbating? More specifically, what do you do when masturbation has stopped being an ordinary sexual behaviour and become something compulsive that you no longer feel reliably able to choose?
