This podcast goes into further detail about the concepts that were mentioned in the podcast "Knowledge Pursuit." The Areas of Knowledge (AOK) and the Ways of Knowing(WOK) are discussed. This podcast does have to do with the course of TOK, but because it has to do more with how we think about what we know, it's not exactly about what we learn in school. It's more about logic and reason, as well as bias and fallacies in reasoning. A primer into epistemology to anybody who is interested.

    Language

    Language is part of our daily life. It is embedded in our society and without it, civilization could not exist as we know it today. It is crucial to the point where without it, none of the people on earth today would be able to get along, much less communicate.    But does language help us in our lives? Does it aid our cognitive capabilities? Or rather, does it limit what we can perceive? But then, how would words come into being if it did?

    Faith-Mundane

    Faith not only exists in the world of religion but also in the human world separate from the belief in God; or the mundane world. This episode explores the shapes that faith does take in the human condition, as well as the dark shapes of faith when it spirals out of control.

    Faith-Religious

    Faith is a slippery subject, just a slippery as intuition. In definition, it seems rather simple and can even be said to belong to the human condition. And in stigma, it seems to be in one place: religion.    Diving into the subject however, it seems that faith is everywhere and present in all AOKs. This episode specifically targets the presence of faith in religion, and its nature there.

    Religion

    In this episode, the AOK of religion is explored.    Considered the polar opposite of the Natural Sciences on the spectrum regarding belief, Religion deals with ideas based on faith. It has its shortcomings, but it also has its strengths.    Notable also is how it complements the Natural Sciences, and keeps the ying-yang of the two in check.

    Intuition

    Intuition. A tricky subject. It eludes even scientists today as it is difficult to tell what it really is. The moment of "Aha!" to some, to others a heuristic. To some an unreliable aspect of the human condition, to others the base of all knowledge.    In this episode, the reliability, capability, and implications of intuitions are explored and discussed in detail.

    History

    History helps to create a nation, and in turn the individual. It is impossible to have a distinct personality without memory, a personal history.    But is history susceptible to bias just as any other AOK? History is written by the winners after all.

    Human Sciences

    From the Verstehen Position to the Stream of Consciousness, in this episode characteristic of the Human Sciences when it comes to assessing and analyzing truth about the behavior and thought process of humans is explored.    Human Sciences are regarded as the cousins of the Natural Sciences but aren't quite in the same boat. One, because they don't study the same topics, and two, the difference in complexity of what they do observe.   But more of that in the episode.

    Natural Sciences

    "I believe in hard science."   An interesting statement when looked at critically. What does it mean to 'believe in science?' And how does it differ from faith in God?    This time, the focus is on the natural sciences, the pillar of truth and the rival to religion. What are the strengths of the natural sciences? Do they have an Achilles heel, or are they as solid as they are stigmatized to be?

    Reason

    Reason is known as the tool to finding truth through what we know at the moment. It is a form of extrapolating and speculating. However, is it as solid and accurate as it seems? Or are there parts of it that aren't the most apparent that are open to criticism?
