Ep. 73 - Kai Bilimoria - A Classical Education In Under An Hour

Kai Bilimoria runs an Instagram page dedicated to history, art, and philosophy. In the "museum of life", Kai seeks to explore as many rooms and exhibitions as possible, curating and cultivating a vast array of insight and facts on many, many topics. Where is the value of art found? Is it in its composition or context? And how does one even become knowledgable in discerning the difference between impressionism and expressionism, oil and acrylic? And to that of history: what is the Magna Carta is why is it a big deal? What were the famous paintings of Napoleon and their hidden meaning? Do we really have Martin Luther to thank for McDonalds? All that and so much more. Enjoy the episode.
