Great conversation with Commander William Spears — submarine warfare officer, deep-thinking military philosopher, and author of Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy. We got into what life is really like under the ocean, how Stoicism shapes modern warfighters, and why the big three philosophers still matter today. We also dug into his new book, the morality of war, emotional discipline, leadership, and what it means to be a true warrior-philosopher in an age of chaos.
Powerful insights, clear thinking, and one of the most grounded conversations you’ll hear on these topics.
