The Socratic method is a central feature of the podcast episodes, as Socrates employs this technique to probe the definitions and assumptions of his interlocutors.

In the episodes on Theaetetus, Protagoras, Laches, and Gorgias, Socrates uses his famous questioning approach to reveal contradictions in the views of others and guide the discussion towards truth and virtue.

Similarly, in the episode on Rebuilding the Education System, the guest advocate Matt Beaudreau discusses the importance of the Socratic method in empowering critical thinking and self-reliance.
