“I begin each day by listening to this podcast which helps ground me with intent and purpose before the barrage of news, emails, meetings, etc. Every episode offers something interesting and useful whether you care about Stoicism or not.”

“If you do not know the amazing history of the Republican Party you should listen to this podcast. Really listen.
What Adam Kinzinger and Ryan Holiday talk about is the exact reason I stay republican.
I may not agree with what republicans are doing now but I believe in the values they used to...”Read full review »

“Decided to give this a try after really enjoying the books but the podcast is really a waste of time. The straw for me was the episode “worst advice on the internet” where Ryan decided to use Stoicism to go after people on the right who are much more successful than Ryan and whom he clearly has a...”Read full review »

“I have a few of your books and follow your podcast all the way from Mozambique. It introduced me to the wonders of ancient philosophy, and I now carry Meditations with me along with the Bible as my two most important books”

“Highly useful content, I listen daily. My main critique for Mr. Holiday is for him to consider pulling back a little on plugging his books and other wares.
Secondary to this, sometimes I cannot relate when he gets into the difficulties of a celebrity.
I love this show and recommend it to...”Read full review »

“Look I get this guy has to make money but jeez all he does is try to sell you on everything every single episode. Also just repeats the same stuff over and over again not a ton of new knowledge coming from him.
Lastly he hates trump and I truly don’t see how someone who studies Marcus and...”Read full review »

“I couldn’t get enough of Wright Thompson and Ryan Holiday talking about this new book “The Barn”, that Thompson has written. Thompsons voice just holds you for parts 1 & 2.

“I’ve read Ryan’s articles and listen to several episodes. Ryan just talks too much and sometimes at the expense of the guest and honestly he obfuscates a fairly simple discussion or idea to the point I’m pretty sure he doesn’t even know what he’s trying to say. I revisited the show because Timm C...”Read full review »

“This show is my favorite daily podcast, with essential wisdom gifted in short daily episodes and long-form interviews. I feel my heart expand, my breath drop, and my shoulders relax as I learn from the hard-fought and hard-won wisdom of the Stoics, both ancient and modern. I have learned so much,...”Read full review »

“I’ve listened to quite a few of his podcasts- but the Amanda Knox podcast is obnoxious. She and Ryan dragging Trump into her being judged and falsely imprisoned is bizarre…..rules for thee, not for me. And NOT Stoic.”

“When I drive my kids to school we listen to The Daily Stoic…There are days when I feel there is a camera following me and the daily stoic message matches to my needs for that day.

“It’s a pity, because there’s really great content here, but I would estimate that a solid 40-50% of each episode is actually just promoting his various books, courses, website, etc.
Incredibly distracting, and not how I am intentionally choosing to spend my time. There are other podcasts about...”Read full review »
