I’m a big fan of Ryan Holiday and watched all his youtube videos. Shortly after Jimmy Carter’s death, he released a video explaining how Carter exemplified all the great stoic virtues. And in contrast, how Trump doesn’t. I do wonder if this video had anything to do with his cancellation.

I've never read any of Holiday's stuff, but I encounter it in the form of a podcast for French language learners. The host is a big fan of Holiday and other related self-help types in the "stoic" vein.

I'm not sure I'm learning much about either stoicism or French, but I did learn that the French name of the stoic Roman emperor is "Marc Aurèle".
