Helpful Context for Plato
Stumbled upon this pod in a search for “Plato’s Apology.” Had just read it and wanted some analysis. Found a few pods where host was essentially just reading a summary of the Apology through a tinny microphone before finding Good in Theory. I’ve learned more about what was happening in Athens at the time of Socrates’ trial, who Socrates was, and other helpful context. And the production value is solid. As I continue to work my way through Plato and then onto Aristotle and beyond, I hope that Good in Theory will keep pumping out thoughtful philosophical analysis. Thank you.
