Inspirational content, awful pronunciation.

The narrator clearly made no effort whatsoever to look up the correct pronunciation of foreign words or names. There were also a couple of content errors (mixing up Marcus Aurelius and Seneca at one point and a couple of editing errors where phrases were repeated.) There were also multiple pleas for reviews, one of which asked the listener to leave a review after only a couple of chapters. This detracted from the listening experience and makes many reviews suspect. Asking for reviews is reasonable and appropriate, but not before the reader has actually finished the book.

That said, the content was insightful and inspiring, and it was interesting to see these philosophies in contrast. This is a decent introduction to the topics and has actionable exercises. If bad pronunciation doesn't set your teeth on edge, it's worth a listen.
