Episode Synopsis

Have you ever just wanted to tell your family off about their views on social and political problem and potentially get thrown out of the house? This episode goes into why I think the best way to progress as a civilization can only be done through conversation and not cutting corners with actions such as performative activism online. I mention two philosophers: Adorno and Gadamer, because they're essential for my argument about conversation.
