“Beginning in 2023 I found The Daily Stoic to be a refreshingly informative and helpful podcast while making my morning commute. It helped me reframe my thinking and improve my interpersonal thoughts, reactions and emotions. After finishing all the archived episodes, I began listening to Ryan Holidays newer uploads and messages. Unfortunately, I’ve found his 2024 episodes to be short and lacking in content. Rather, his episodes have become shameless ad plugs for whatever, or whomever he is sponsored by, or has a vested interest in. The episodes now feel “sales’y” where a pitch on product or service is the intent… rather than helpful information to unlock your inner stoic. This lends to two unfortunate scenarios, IMO. 1. His message has run its course. Meaning, all the data/information Ryan has cultivated for Daily Stoic teaching has been expended. 2. Ryan has moved on to other ventures, and has an underpaid staffer uploading mediocre Daily Stoic content just to appease the channel requirement, and keep the channel alive. Unfortunately, for me… I’ve now moved on, and unsubscribed. This channel and message is no longer useful, as there is nothing new to keep my mind fed.”
