    Episode 3 - The Allegory of The Cave (Plato's Cave)

    In the darkness of the cave one is only able to see shadows and reflections; it is once you step outside into the light that things reveal themselves for what they truly are.   This episode discusses a metaphor that questions reality, knowledge and the meaning of life. Plato's Cave suggests the importance of situational awareness and the questioning of so-called certainties. For some the comfort of ignorance can be too difficult to part with.  You can share your thoughts and comments on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram: @wowyeyeye
