You can't cast through ancient Greece without landing on φιλοσοφία (philosophy) at some point. There's no one better to discuss it with than @DrLanternJack , host of @greecepodcast. Great stuff @CastingGreece .
New Episode Greek Philosophy with Lantern Jack I set Jack Visnjic @DrLanternJack an ambitious task of introducing the world of Greek philosophy to us in a single episode I think he nailed it and I know far more than I did previously #philosophy #History
