Podcast Description
Aristotle's lecture notes on friendship are in Books VIII and IX of his Nichomachean Ethics. He pursues the question of what friendship is, exploring the way it works, its perils and its promise. Part transcription, part modern-day reflection, Mark Vernon takes Aristotle's notes to ask the same question today.

Customer Reviews
Production needs improvement
I love the content, but the poorly mixed intro and the insanely loud outro make it unlistenable.
Pearls of wisdom from ancient times
Nicely done! True to the description, the podcasts are very brief but to-the-point and insightful. Mr. Vernon successfully bridges Aristotle's ideas to present-day situations. Anyone interested in increasing or deepening their friendships will find helpful concepts here. (Only one tiny complaint: the choir music at the beginning, middle, and end is a bit intrusive and seems heavy handed.) I hope Mr. Vernon creates more of these kinds of podcasts!
