Sam is outstanding at weaving ancient philosophy, modern hardship, and his unique experiences together into a weekly hard-hitting post. I get better every time I read his work and this conversation did the same thing.

His podcast, No Bell, is another source of valuable knowledge that he is continuously evolving. My favorite listen so far, which I rank among the top 5 podcast episodes I’ve ever heard is:

I can’t recommend his account or podcast enough.
