Returning champion Dr Eleanor Janega comes back on the show to tell us about another Weird Little Guy™ - Marcus Aurelius, and the philosophy of 'Stoicism', beloved by nearly every strange LinkedIn Guy. Eleanor tells us about how the 'Stoicism' packaged in airport self-help books differs from its original Greek form, and how, throughout history, and even in its present, secular forms, Stoicism has largely been an intellectuallised form of cope. -------- Read Eleanor's Blog, here: https://going-medieval.com/ Get your copy of "The Once And Future Sex", here: https://www.waterstones.com/author/eleanor-janega/4304701 --------
