Listen "Ep 40: Popper Pieces - Part 2 of an Introduction to Popper"
Episode Synopsis
This is part 2 of my introduction to Popper series.
Here I cover
1. The concept of "conjectures"
2. Common Sense
3. Realism
4. The bucket and the searchlight
5. Debating definitions
Yes. It's only 2 episodes in, and I have violated my self-imposed 10 minute limit rule. But I think it was worth it, rather than splitting these in two.
