    The Modern Crisis of Choice | Explorations: Ep. 2
    Feb 17 2022

    Freedom without choice is an illusion, but choice is not freedom. This episode features the first part of my series on how modernity traps us by increasing meaningless choices while destroying our freedom. Learning why we have so many choices is the first step towards accepting out situation, then transforming it with philosophy as a way of life.

I haven’t enjoyed a podcast this much in a long time. The production is simple but the content is incredibly substantial. Having been out of the academic world for a long time, I really enjoyed listening to a lecture in which the topics are engaged deeply and also personally. I love hearing from a philosopher who believes that philosophy matters.

Fantastic
