Welcome to the life and thinking of Socrates, and this is the moment when everything changes. Up to now, we’ve wandered through the wild and wonderful world of the Presocratics. Rivers that flow, universes that freeze, cosmic forces that fall in and out of love, atoms dancing in the void, and Sophists who could argue you into believing your own sandals had a life of their own.

But when Socrates arrives, philosophy stops being a speculative guessing game about what the universe is made of and becomes a moral and spiritual quest about what we are made of.

Socrates is not just another philosopher; he is the beginning of a new way of thinking about being human. He is the man who believed that truth is worth dying for, that virtue is worth living for, and that the soul is the most important thing about us. And because Socrates is too large, too rich, too important to fit into a single episode, we will spend four full episodes exploring his life, his method, his ideas, and his death — a mini‑series within the series.
