🛖 Come in, drifters. A Stoic philosopher spent eight years governing the Roman Empire from a desk inside Nero's palace, convinced that if he stopped, everything would collapse. Tonight, Seneca's years behind the throne become a sleep story about carrying what you know you should put down, recorded with the real sounds of a forest trail on Prince Edward Island.

Tonight, we follow the life of Seneca the Younger through his years as Nero's chief minister, from the midnight desk on the Palatine Hill through the murder of Britannicus, the killing of Agrippina at Baiae, and the slow accumulation of a fortune that weighed more than it was worth. This is a sleepy Stoic life for anyone who lies awake rehearsing outcomes they cannot control, running through every version of tomorrow because stopping feels like surrender. When Seneca finally walked into a room and asked Nero to take it all back, the emperor said no. What Seneca did next is the question the episode leaves you with. Wherever sleep meets you along the way, let it.
