Ep 245: The Farthest Reaches (Part 1)

Update: 2025-09-12

Description

Chapters 1 to 4 of a multi-chapter series about the reach of what I argue is one of the most important lessons to learn in order to solve many pressing problems: explanatory universality. This podcast provides an explanation that "explanatory universality" is an idea of such depth it may have among the greatest reach of any idea.

Chapters:

00:12 Chapter 1 - Universality and Reach

09:09 Chapter 2 - The Reach of Explanatory Universality

20:01 Chapter 3 - Explaining Explanatory Universality

30:23 Chapter 4 - Explanatory Universality and Education
