Listener Reviews

I really enjoy listening to Practical Stoicism. As a classical studies lover, I enjoy how Tanner speaks both on the meditation part of stoicism, as well as the history of the classical world and the “behind the scenes” of the meditation. I like to listen to the show while I am walking or getting ready in the morning. A great show for anyone who needs something calm and interesting to listen to!

I just listened to Bookless, Breadless, and Threadless and I LOVE the term "Bro-icism." It cracked me up because that stuff is everywhere on IG and Twitter. So many are missing the point. Love his last sentence: "Gloating isn't stoic." Very cool.

I appreciate podcasts that deliver AND deliver quickly. That’s exactly what practical stoicism is all about! Tanner really dives in and provides you with beautiful meditations, insights and value to help you shift into a more stoic way of life. Thank you Tanner for what you do! I’ll be back around for more as a new subscriber.

Like the podcast name says, it’s practical. I love how the host gives concise lessons but also helps me understand how to apply it in my life today. So it’s not just theoretical, it really is practical.

I really enjoyed this podcast, it definitely makes you think and is delivered in a way that’s easy to listen to.

Tanner has a great way of breaking down stoicism so am every day person like myself can understand.

This was recommended to me. At first the title confused me due to me not being knowledgeable about stoicism. But this podcast broke it down so easy within short minutes. I’m happy to stumble upon this podcast

Tanner has a great way of speaking and is very informative. The shorter length episodes really help keep my attention on such a vast subject.

I came to learn of Stoicism about two years ago, and I thought it would be way over my head to understand it. So, when I found this podcast and began listening to it I was extremely impressed by how well Tanner explains such an esoteric topic. Keep up the great work!

Really a great podcast to get you thinking- deeply. Yet, it is not pretentious or assuming, rather the show presents complex stoic and other Philosophical principles in a simple manner that applies to all of us and is easily understood. No matter where you are in life, this podcast will leave you thinking more clearly on your humanity and your role in the world around you.

So deep and very straightforward. I am avid enthusiast of this podcast and can’t wait every morning for another episode. Listening this podcast is like my daily routine- very valuable and enriching

10 episodes in and this is great. Articulate, concise, and well delivered.

This is genuinely the coolest podcast I’ve listened to in the longest time. After listening to a few episodes, I’m ready to pull out some old philosophy books. Tanner brings a curiosity to his episodes that is really engaging.

I’m new to stoicism but this podcast is bringing me into the fold with an easy to follow and soothing discussion. The ideas and concepts are really interesting and insightful. Thank you!

I like Tanner. He's down-to-Earth, and he asks questions that get you to think about life and beyonnd. The approach to discussing stoicism is done in a way that it's starting to make sense to me. It's practical!

I’m glad I found this podcast - in addition to providing insightful content, he has a great radio voice!

I have a philosophy podcast, “From Nowhere to Nothing”, and we just covered Cynicism, so I was curious how this would match up. There’s a lot of linguistic insights I was unaware of!

I’m excited to dive in and learn more about stoicism by tuning into this podcast. Thanks for working so hard to put out such valuable content!

Tanner’s voice is as soothing as a calm ocean as it meditates and comforts you. This show has an almost ASMR effect. It’s so calming and relaxing. Very good show. Nice and short and to the point. Keep up the good work

I stumbled across this podcast and I love it! The combination of great information, a great voice, and professional sound make this an amazing listen! Check it out and learn something new today, you’ll be glad you did!

My favourite podcast about this philosophy.

Very well-executed and intriguing podcast. People will sometimes associate Stoicism with men but as a woman, this podcast is very thought-provoking and interesting. As for Tanner, he is an amazing host with a very engaging way of speaking. Highly recommend this podcast.

If you’re looking for a soothing voice to discuss intellectual topics, this is your podcast! Interesting topics with a different take.

Big shoutout to Tanner! He’s constantly working on improving the podcast, giving us more & doesn’t do it just for trends or money - but to deliver the best content.Hope to talk together in real life some time. Great job. 💪
