Hello I'm Hannah and I'm Sirruti And we are the hosts of Red-handed, a weekly true-crime

podcast. Every week on Red-handed, we get stuck into the most talked about cases. But we also

dig into those you might not have heard of. Like the Nepalese royal massacre and the Nitheri child sacrifices.

Whatever the case, we want to know what pushes people to the extremes of human behavior.

Find, download, and binge red-handed, wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Welcome to the Daily Stoic podcast. Each day we bring you a meditation inspired by the ancient Stoics,

illustrated with stories from history, current events, and literature to help you be better at what you do.

And at the beginning of the week, we try to do a deeper dive, setting a kind of stoic intention for the week,

something to meditate on, something to think on, something to leave you with, to journal about whatever it is you happen to be doing.

So let's get into it.

This is what we use this for. On the surface there are not many phrases designed to be less appealing. Stoic philosophy is like a double whammy of negative for most people,

representing emotionless on one hand and abstract or academic

thinking on the other. Who wants to be the former and who has time for the latter?

And this is all rather tragic considering, you know, not just the actual writings of the Stoics, but their actual lives, which were a direct contradiction of this stereotype.

Of the few stories we have of Marcus Aurelius, three involve him crying.
