I enjoyed Rick Roderick's series on philosophy. They start here:

http://rickroderick.org/100-guide-philosophy-and-human-value...

There are probably more thorough ones out there, but I found his added perspective helpful - he's constantly asking, is this useful today? Today is 30 years ago now, but still. :)

Before listening to the series, I thought I wasn't interested in Nietzsche, but afterwards it feels like he has a point that modern culture still hasn't addressed, au contraire. Especially if you look at the dropping birth rates.
