Do Chairs Really Exist?

In this episode, we look at the life of ancient Greek philosopher Socrates, and how he went about engaging in philosophical discussions with fellow Athenians. We talk about some present-day issues like Information Overload and Fake News, and how we can employ the Socratic Method to forge critical thinking and tackle the prior mentioned issues. 

In this episode, we look at how humans have historically resisted the worst of catastrophes. Taking inspiration from existential philosophers, the episode sheds light on the importance of having a meaning/purpose in life to endure a crisis. We look at the life and struggle of Psychologist Viktor Frankl, and some ways in which we can go about seeking meaning during these trying times of COVID-19 pandemic.
