29: (Philosophy) - Plato - The Republic - Part 1

<p>Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, I am excited to start a series that is as interesting as talking about the existence of life and why people do the things we do. I'm of course talking about... philosophy. Some find it boring... especially because it is boring... and confusing... which is perfect for this podcast. Our first reading will be from Plato's "The Republic", a Socratic dialogue written around 375 BC, focusing on justice, the order and character of a just city-state, and the just man. It is a foundational element of Western political theory and philosophy. Now sit back, relax, and close your eyes because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed. </p>
