The Gadfly Analogy - Plato's Apology

Here is the fifth podcast episode taken from the core concept series on Plato's Apology.

You may have heard references to being a "social gadfly". That phrase comes from Socrates himself, and he explains that being like a gadfly is precisely how he fulfills his important social function for his city of Athens

Socrates' Divine Mission - Plato's Apology

The very first podcast episode on my Soundcloud site is now live!  I've started converting videos from the core concept series on Plato's Apology. 

It took quite a bit of work at first - there's a significant learning curve to Audacity, and the sound quality on those earlier videos required a lot of editing work to improve it to the level you'll hear in the podcast (better, but far from perfect).

Still, I'm quite happy to finally be able to air this for the general public.  Episode #1!
