Philosophy is for everyone not just lecture halls and academic journals. Getting started can feel intimidating. There’s a lot of jargon, and sometimes it feels like you need a degree just to ask a question. So here, I tell stories about ancient and modern philosophy with one simple rule: keep it simple, and make it worth remembering. This is philosophy for the rest of us. - Enitan

    Episode #7: Living underwater on purpose - How we live with limitations | Kant and the filter of Reality (Part 3) | Philosophy for Beginners

    [Part 3] Kant tells us that as we move through the world, we're shaping it by what you pay attention to and what you take to be real. So take a second and ask yourself, what kind of world does that create for you, and is it one you’d choose if you saw it clearly? We're wrapping up our time with Kant this week, but he'll be back!
