  • Episode 90: Philo on the Riot in Alexandria, 38 A.D.

    4 SEP 2021 · This episode is a bit delicate... but very relevant, and very worth listening to, in my opinion. What was the cause of the riot among the native Alexandrians in 38 A.D.?

  • Episode 81: IDEALISM vs. DEMOCRACY

    20 JUL 2021 · In this episode, hear a summary of philosophical idealism, and learn how it is related to the question of Realism vs. Nominalism that dominated philosophy during the Middle Ages. Then, think through the consequences of these world-views. Was William of Ockham a genius, or was he wrong -- or was he subversive? How does an idealist imagine that education should work? How do our convictions about these things change how we might raise our children? Finally: what if I'm not perfectly beautiful and I feel sad about all of this?
