Listen "141. Philosophy - 'Intentional Wisdom'"
Episode Synopsis
In a way, we are all philosophers, trying to make sense of this mysterious world, how we fit within it, and how we can live our happiest and most meaningful lives. But how far does all of the contemplation really get us? Is the world of philosophy merely a realm of overthinking and pontification, or does it truly yield to practical changes in the way we live our lives? Eric Weiner is an acclaimed journalist and former foreign correspondent for NPR. He joins the podcast to speak about his latest book, The Socrates Express: In Search of Life Lessons from Dead Philosophers.Eric Weiner Website - https://ericweinerbooks.comBut his book The Socrates Express - https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07Z43PM23/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1Speaker LabsThis episode is sponsored by Speaker Labs.
