Welcome to the Republic of Middle Aged Men, Episode 1!

We are very excited to kick off our podcast and introduce ourselves and the first book we will be reading, Plato's The Republic.

We are 3 real world mates, none of which are qualified in philosophy but all of which are wanting to work through this classic and others in the future, as well as generally hanging out and chatting about life as Middle aged Men. We hope you enjoy hanging out with us and that you will join us at www.therepublicofmam.com

Thanks.
