You were born to be a philosopher. The unique evolutionary output of the human mind is that it is designed to wonder…and philosophy begins in wonder.
What comes up in this episode:
- What is philosophy, anyway?
- There are PHILOSOPHERS and there are philosophers.
- The roles philosophers play.
- Pythagoras gave us more than a theorem…
- Philosophy is inescapable (even if you try really hard).
Referenced or mentioned:
- Pythagorean Harmonics
- Aristotle’s Metaphysics
- Natural Philosophy (kinda)
A thought to carry with you:
The self-help industry is essentially “popularized philosophy.”
