I'm delighted to welcome back my great friend Mahmoud Rasmi, aka 'DecafQuest' to the show and ever more excited to announce our monthly episode schedule. As a fellow philosopher (with actual philosophic training) Mahmoud and I are going to start once a month conversation to continue exploring the deep world of sports and how a philosophical approach can teach us more about them and how to use them for good in our lives.  

In this episode, we discuss first principles of goodness, the importance of experience in the body for self knowing, how to aim ourselves properly with intention, why we need real world evidence to actualize the good, why sports are dreamlike, and how different sports can train different virtues into our selves. 

If you enjoy this type of perspective and want to know how direct coaching in fitness like this can help you lead a better life in body, mind, and spirit follow me on X or Substack (@JB_Goldstein) and send me a message.
