Ep. 52 - Jordan Peterson, Proverbs, and the Philosopher-King w/Dr. Owen Anderson

In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, we are joined once more by Dr. Owen Anderson, professor of philosophy and religious studies at Arizona State University, to discuss the conception of wisdom in the book of Proverbs and how that relates to Plato's take on wisdom. We also discuss Plato's philosopher-king and Jordan Peterson's take on wisdom and religion. We also try to answer whether or not King Solomon rightly fit the description of Plato's Philosopher-King (though ~400 prior to Plato's famous depiction).   Check out Dr. Anderson's fantastic YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTBT9eZLXj5Ddbqs8jt-Clw  If you like this podcast, then support it on Patreon for $1, $3, or $5 a month.
