Summary
In this episode, we delve into the life and philosophy of Socrates, one of the founders of Western philosophy. We explore the profound impact he had on the world and speculate on how different our understanding of ethics, logic, and the self would be if Socrates had never questioned the status quo in ancient Athens. Join us as we journey through an alternate timeline where Socrates never drank the hemlock. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
