Massimo Pigliucci is a Philosophy Professor at the City College of New York, a biologist, author, social critic, and the former co-host of the Rationally Speaking Podcast. He also hosts a podcast called Stoic Meditations and he just released a new book titled "How To Be A Stoic: Using Ancient Philosophy To Live A Modern Life." In this episode we also touched on the moral dilemmas of free will and justice, virtue signaling, sensationalism, reactionary movements, navigating the pop culture of public intellectuals, and how to internally work on the self before projecting out into the world.
