" Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one."      -Marcus Aurelius     Is the quote that starts off the podcast, why?          the stoics  have a way with words that have transcended not only generations.     Centuries. anyone who thinks they have come up with sayings or quotes that have depth have not read enough of the stoic philosophies.   This podcast is how id like to keep doing them from this day forth.    I will still have guests  but I would like to talk more about what I like in order to find/form a community of individuals that not only enjoy what I do but engage in both conversations that stimulate both my mind and the minds of my listeners  Thank you for taking the time to listen to this episode  on the next episode i plan to have hopefully finished one if not two of the books i mention in this ep if so i will break them down and discuss what i may or may not have liked For the most part i will try and keep the next one not only shorter but a manga related episode Much love  -Gus
