Summary
Medieval historian Peter Jones joins Marlon to talk about his new book, Self-Help from the Middle Ages: What the Seven Deadly Sins Can Teach Us About Living. We talk pride, envy, anger, sloth, avarice, gluttony, lust, Silicon Valley, ancient manuscripts, and why so much of what makes us human, no matter the century, is our need for connection.
