this is the one

I went through so many scowling, stern looking, self serving “stoic” podcasters before finding Tanner, and his show is stellar. What a compassionate, self-effacing, knowledgeable and genuine person! I admire his honest approach to sharing and teaching, and his care in encouraging women to suspend judgment of some of the [ancient] language of the meditations and discourses in favor of hearing the roots of the lessons was greatly appreciated. I have been a great fan of Epictetus since my undergraduate days a thousand years ago and am so delighted for the revival of my interests in all things stoic.
