Two professors & poor quality American Higher Education

“Sad display of American academia. One can more yield with their time with Wikipedia and YouTube. A philosophy professor who was a philosophy major in college and didn’t hear about stoicism. I was not a philosophy major in college, I was a zoology major, took a course in Greek Philosophy, and I heard about stoicism. And I read about stoicism for decades there after via the “Meditations”, as many have. The Stockdale story was superficial, yet seemed for them to represent it all in that. An academic expert who wrote a book on stoicism using the most common example of stoicism. A college student would expect a bit more depth. But then again this is American higher education. Since he is a stoic this is not meant to be offensive just an opinion. A would break his jar of lentils , but it is probably a plastic one.
This one star rating is given because the host of the show is also a professor. Again , a college student would expect a host, an academic one, to delve deeper with their questions. Podcast & popular media.
There are much better podcasts about philosophy on the Internet, and they are much better (academically & for the popular audience) including talks of stoicism.
Sad, currently, American students pay outlandish amounts of money for a poor quality education in America—this interview on stoicism is an example.”
