Divagazioni ‘'orgogliosamente'' CinefiliSerialmente per questo mese caldissimo di Giugno.Tuffatevi con Giojo e Zeno nelle fresche acque del nostro Podcast e lasciatevi cullare dal dolce (?) suono delle nostre voci.Ci trovate sui nostri canali social:- Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/cinefiliserialmente - Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/CinefiliSerialmente

One interview, two absolutely iconic central PA bars: Zeno's, and Chumley's. I got an interview with Ellen Braun, who is the general manager of Zeno's, the bar that brought great beer to State College; and also the general manager of Chumley's, the bar that has quietly (and sometimes not so quietly) provided a safe haven for gay folks from Penn State and the region around State College since the early 80's. We also talked with two of her lieutenants, Justin and Sofie.  I already got the history of Zeno's from long-time manager Dave Staab way back in Episode 4, but things have changed a lot since then, so we needed an update. Chumley's, well, I've wanted to do a 'gay bars of central PA' episode for a long time, and the story is as fascinating and varied as I'd hoped, especially when you throw in the excellent cocktail program.  This is a great interview. I enjoyed doing it, I enjoyed listening to it when I edited it, and I hope you enjoy it too.  (One small correction; Ellen contacted me to note that she misspoke when she said Chumley's new owners had purchased the building. They did not, they only purchased the business.) It is also a long interview, and I didn't have a lot of room for much else, though I did squeeze in how we made a great blueberry cobbler out of our fresh Kiwanis Club blueberries. What I'm Drinking Today was two bourbons, the latest Larceny Barrel Proof release and the new Old Fitzgerald Bottled in Bond 7 Year Old, both Heaven Hill whiskeys with the same wheated bourbon mash bill; I taste and compare them. The Smack-Dab in the Centre sponsorship moment is about the upcoming Route 45 Getaways event which will be right in front of my house. Really!  Next episode? I've got everything ready for a Gettysburg episode, which required a marathon pub crawl with my buddy Dave Dreese. But I'm also getting an interview with...well, with a major central PA food company, and there will be giveaways, folks, prizes for you! So maybe we'll do that one next week, because who doesn't like prizes?   See you in two weeks! Until then? TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THE PODCAST!

De wereld staat op alle mogelijke manieren in de fik, en vanuit die ernst is juist het Stoïcisme de wereld in geroepen: hoe is tegenslag - naast onvermijdelijk - ook nuttig? Hoe scherp je je geest aan crises, hoe ga je ermee om, hoe reflecteer je erop, en hoe zorg je dat je nergens in doorslaat?O.a. Seneca, Zeno, Alan Watts (en wij) hadden er ideeën over en delen die met je! Let wel: we geven verderop in de aflevering de disclaimer (weer) dat wij ook niet alle wijsheid in pacht hebben, maar slechts een ideeën en manieren.Veel luisterplezier!

Yours truly is back for another stellar show! We're doing a theme show all about YOU the listener! Kick back as we cover all things important about YOU the fan and great tunes to boot!

Why You Should Listen More and Speak Less – Wisdom from Zeno of CitiumStoic Quote Series – Via Stoica PodcastIn this episode of the Via Stoica Podcast, we go back to the roots of Stoicism — to Zeno of Citium, the founder of the philosophy. Long before Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus, Zeno taught the importance of listening, observation, and self-mastery.We reflect on one of his most powerful quotes:“The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is that we may listen the more and talk the less.”– Zeno of Citium, Lives of Eminent Philosophers, Book 7.23Why is real listening so rare today? How can we practice presence and attention in everyday conversations? And how does this quote connect to Stoic ideas like impressions, cosmopolitanism, and inner virtue?This episode explores the Stoic art of listening and how to live it, not just talk about it.

Listen up folks to what I decree! We got a show all about ME but not about "me"..lol We're having fun with a theme show all about the word ME in the title.

What Stoicism Teaches About Legendary Living and Lasting ResilienceIn this episode, I dive deep into the transformative world of Stoicism. Instead of focusing on a single book, I'll take you on an engaging journey through the foundations of Stoicism, sharing its timeless wisdom and how its principles have shaped not only my life, the cornerstone of this podcast, but also everything I do in business and life.You'll learn about the origins of Stoicism, how a shipwrecked merchant named Zeno sparked a movement that has influenced figures from emperors to everyday people. I break down the philosophy's key thinkers like Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus, and highlight why their approach to virtue, self-mastery, and resilience can help anyone navigate today's challenges with clarity and purpose.This episode isn't just a history lesson; it's packed with practical Stoic exercises and actionable insights for mastering your mind, managing emotions, and living a life of intention. I also share a range of modern resources, book recommendations, and even personal anecdotes about how Stoicism's principles have helped him embrace adversity, build discipline, and focus on what truly matters.Whether you're new to Stoicism or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode is your invitation to learn, grow, and transform. Stick around for a thoughtful discussion that just might change the way you approach life's obstacles—and help you step closer to Becoming Legendary.Enjoy the episode!YouTube: youtu.be/AqivvS4nG6U Show Notes: TheSocialChameleon.Show/Stoicism You can listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castbox, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Audible, Substack, or your favorite podcast platform.

Zeno of Citium (c. 334 – c. 262 BC) was a Hellenistic philosopher from Cyprus and the founder of Stoicism. His philosophy emphasized living in harmony with nature and practicing virtue to attain peace of mind (ataraxia). Zeno's teachings influenced ethics, logic, and natural philosophy, laying the foundation for Stoicism's prominence during the Roman era and beyond. Despite losing his original writings, Zeno's ideas survived through the works of later Stoics like Cleanthes and Chrysippus.

Stoicism is a philosophy founded by Zeno around the fourth century BC. It was important in Greece and Rome and culminated at the time Marcus Aurelius was emperor. The primary purpose of philosophy is to reveal our shortcomings so we can overcome them. Stoicism is about living in harmony with the universe. There are four cardinal virtues that Stoics cultivate: wisdom, courage, temperance, and justice. Pithy quotes that are useful to consider are discussed. Knowing the difference between what we can and can't control is key to figuring out what to put our attention on and how to adapt. We find strength in realizing we have power over our minds, not outside events. Viktor Frankl, a concentration camp survivor who was aligned with Stoic philosophy, said that decisions not conditions determine what a man is. We may not be able to choose the conditions that come to us in life, but we can choose how to relate to those conditions. Wealth is to desire what we have; poverty is to wish for what we don't have. Stoics maintain that our being is contained in an inner citadel that we create with Stoic virtue. We are invincible and cannot be defeated if we maintain our character and principles. Meditations, by Marcus Aurelius, was written for himself as a diary. There is a thread of accepting reality as it is when we are self-contained. Stoicism involves not being swept away by emotions and not being in denial of them. Happiness depends on the quality of our thoughts. We can see obstacles as directing us to shift our perspective and move forward. The trials we face introduce us to our strengths. Rivers are easiest to cross at their source. Once neuropathways are established, it's much harder to break a habit. Stoic virtues are universal and offer a way into any spiritual practice. Bandhu Dunham is the author of Creative Life and an internationally recognized glass artist and teacher.

"In the sixth century, two hundred years after St Nina had preached the Gospel in Georgia, the most holy Mother of God appeared to John, an ascetic of Antioch, and commanded him to choose twelve of his disciples and go to Georgia, to strengthen the Orthodox faith there. John did so. Reaching Georgia, these twelve missionaries were formally welcomed by the prince of that country and the Catholicos, Eulalius, and immediately began their work with great zeal. The people gathered around them in hordes, and they strengthened them in the Faith with great wisdom and many miracles. The chief of these Christ-loving missionaries was St John of Zedan, and the names of the others were: Abidus, Antony, David, Zeno, Thaddeus, Jesse, Isderius, Joseph, Michael, Pyrrus, Stephen and Shio. With apostolic zeal, they all strengthened the Christian faith in Georgia, founded many monasteries and left many disciples to follow them. Thus they became worthy of glory in heaven and power on earth." (Prologue)

After several conversations about antidepressants, the Dorx welcome back pediatrician Dr. Julia Mason, who prescribes Selective Seretonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) to young people. Do we even know what these drugs do to developing brains? How do antidepressants compare with “gender-affirming care”? Does Barlean's Fish Oil really taste like lemon custard? We also talk about myelnation, the distress of youth, the parasympathetic nervous system, neurotransmitters, immunosuppression, social costs and benefits of treatments, wildly swinging trends in medicine, unintended consequences, public schools, and the over-diagnoses of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

225 - Ancient Stoics Solve Modern Problems In this episode, I reflect on how discovering Stoicism as a young girl profoundly changed how I view the world. From the ancient teachings of Zeno and Epictetus to modern-day applications like mindful eating and emotional resilience, Stoicism offers practical wisdom for anyone navigating life's chaos. The Origins of Stoicism:I explore the fascinating story of Zeno of Citium, a shipwrecked merchant whose misfortune led him to philosophy. His teachings on virtue, nature, and practical ethics laid the foundation for a timeless way of living. Lessons from Epictetus:A former slave turned philosopher, Epictetus taught that true freedom lies in mastering your internal world. His views on control, endurance, and serenity still resonate today. Personal Stories of Applying Stoicism:I share how I used Stoicism to handle tough family dynamics, including confrontations with my father and grandmother. These stories show how “negative visualization” and calm resolve can transform even the hardest situations. Modern-Day Stoicism:From budgeting to dieting, I explain how I use Stoic principles in everyday life. Whether it's mindful eating or resisting emotional spending, these ancient tools still work. Virtues in Action:Stoicism isn't just about reading—it's about doing. I talk about how wisdom, courage, justice, and temperance guide my choices, and how practicing them intentionally can change your life. Takeaways:This episode is a reminder that life's hardships are inevitable, but our response is within our control. By practicing Stoicism, we gain the tools to live with purpose, resilience, and integrity. The virtues of courage and wisdom aren't just lofty ideals—they're daily habits we can build.

Modern interpretations of Stoicism are often wildly inaccurate, reducing the philosophy to a life hack for suppressing emotions, a tool for productivity-obsessed entrepreneurs, or a justification for toxic masculinity. But do any of these portrayals hold up under scrutiny? In this episode, I break down these misconceptions by turning to the words of ancient Stoic thinkers—Musonius Rufus, Zeno of Citium, and others—who show us that Stoicism is far more profound and ethical than pop culture suggests. We'll explore: — Why Stoicism is not about indifference but about focusing on what truly shapes our character. — How both men and women are equally called to pursue Virtue. — Why Stoics deeply care about things outside their control, despite the common misunderstanding. — The true meaning of Stoic emotional management, which is about reasoning through emotions rather than repressing them. At its core, Stoicism is a philosophy of moral excellence, a commitment to aligning ourselves with Nature, and a guide to becoming a force for good in the world. Getting Stoicism right matters—not just for personal development, but for the influence it has on society as a whole. “The goal (of Stoicism) is to live in agreement with nature. For our individual natures are parts of the nature of the whole universe.” — Zeno of Citium Join the Practical Stoicism community, the Society of Stoics, at https://community.stoicismpod.com.

In this episode, I explore Meditations 3.7, where Marcus Aurelius reminds us that nothing should take priority over Virtue. Many misunderstand Stoicism as a philosophy of detachment, resilience, and isolation, but in truth, it is profoundly prosocial. Being a Stoic means fulfilling our roles within the broader human community, not retreating from it. I challenge the popular but misguided idea of Stoicism as a philosophy for lone survivalists, demonstrating how its core teachings—from Zeno to Epictetus to Seneca—emphasize duty, justice, and engagement with the world. True Stoicism isn't about turning inward; it's about striving for moral excellence in every interaction. “Never value as an advantage to yourself what will force you one day to break your word, to abandon self-respect, to hate, suspect, execrate another, to act a part, to covet anything that calls for walls or coverings to conceal it. A man who puts first his own mind and divinity, and the holy rites of its excellence, makes no scene, utters no groans, will need neither the refuge of solitude nor the crowded streets. What is most worthwhile, he will pass his days neither in pursuit nor in avoidance, and it is no concern at all of his whether the time be longer or shorter for which he shall have the use of the soul in its bodily envelope; for even if he must be released at once, he will depart as easily as he would perform any other act that can be done with reverence and sobriety, being careful all his life of this one thing alone: that his understanding be not found in any state which is foreign to a reasonable social being.” --(Meditations 3.7) TAKEAWAYS — The highest priority in Stoicism is the pursuit of Virtue—nothing should stand in its way. — Stoicism is not a philosophy of detachment or isolation but of prosocial engagement and duty. — A Stoic does not seek solitude or approval; they act justly regardless of external validation.

Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. The King is already gone, but there's a castle full of ants desperate to find and protect him. Gon and Killua have a brief encounter with Netero and Zeno on their way to find Pitou. Killua especially is having some sort of crisis (crises?). Zeno almost has words of warning for the boys, but instead says "hey man don't look at me you figure it out". Meanwhile, Ikalgo immediately raises everyone's suspicion and Knuckle has to tap in for a thoroughly beaten Shoot. Oh yeah and there's a new entry in the "most paranoid guy" category: Welfin. He sees Bloster hear Ikalgo call Leol "Hagya" and has a sincerely impressive meltdown. This week we cover episodes 113-115, titled An x Indebted x Insect, Divide x And x Conquer, and Duty x And x Question.
