Want to become more Stoic? Join us and other Stoics this October: Stoicism Applied by Caleb Ontiveros and Michael Tremblay on Maven
One of the best ways to understand what Stoicism is and contemporary Stoic debates is learning about Aristo of Chios.
Today, we’re having debates over the place of physics and logic in Stoicism and the place of Stoic advice today. Well, Aristo challenged the Stoics on these issues hundred of years ago.
In this episode, Michael and Caleb talk about what he had to say, how the orthodox Stoics responded, and what they have to say about the issues themselves.
(02:12) Introduction
(09:17) The Rejection of Logic and Physics
(18:50) Rejecting Preferred Indifferents
(32:20) Rejecting Precepts
