Stoicism on Fire is the most complete, articulate, and factual stoicism podcast there is. Chris Fisher doesn’t miss a beat in laying down the entirety of the philosophy, step by step in the most objective way possible. It’s truly a gift for us all.

I stumbled across this a few weeks ago and can’t get enough, but I only listen to a couple episodes each week and think about what was said. I have tried a couple other Stoic podcast and find way too much babbling. This podcast is well put together and helps me see things slightly different and...Read full review »

I’ve listened to just about every podcast on Stoicism over the past few years. A lot of the podcasters out there are trying to take God out of Stoicism, which creates something that isn’t ancient Stoicism. Thanks for keeping Stoicism not just as a lifestyle, but also as a spiritual way of life.

There are a few other popular podcasts on stoicism, but this is by far the best I’ve listened to yet. Episode 63 was my first, and WOW. What an intro. Maybe make a Patreon? I didn’t hear any ads yet, but I’d like to keep it that way!

Chris is an excellent teacher. Very well organized podcasts and well structured way to explore stoic concepts. So glad I found this podcast and really appreciate the work Chris puts into each episode. Very well done!!
Gibbers in SC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/27/22
Extremely informative and well researched material on stoicism. But not the usual ‘self help’ version, the true Stoicism that it’s practitioners pursued. Essential listening for anyone who wants to gain an understanding of the West’s native spiritual path…

This is easily the best Stoic podcast out there. Been a listener for years and glad it’s back. Well produced, expert commentary and perfectly articulated. Best for those who want more than a surface level understanding of the philosophy.

Best stoicism podcast by far. It explains the whole philosophy fom the beginning with great detail. Despite its depth, Chris manages to make you understand the most complex ideas about stoicism.

I’m a middle-aged person who’s struggled with the realities of life and being in a healthy mental place that can accept things beyond my control. I would not consider myself a spiritual person no I grew up in a religious family and so many aspects of spiritualism have irritated me over my life. ...Read full review »

The publisher has put in a huge effort to teach the basics of traditional stoicism in a compact, clear and comprehensible manner. He deserves many congratulations and praise for putting this series together, which has really helped me to deepen my undetstanding of this ancient philosophical school.

I have long considered myself a panentheist yet this is a framework and not a path for becoming the best human being possible. Stoicism, especially as articulated in this podcast, presents a path of virtue that beautifully aligns with panentheism and provides a guide for cultivating virtue. I am...Read full review »

Mr Fisher has articulated so many fine points of the great masters- and he makes them accessible to all. I appreciate the podcasts’ balance of reporting out that Stoicism is a formidable path for purpose in life, and not merely a system of ethics.
