Ne Plus Ultra - Episode 14: Rationally Irrational

Welcome everyone to the fourteenth episode of Ne Plus Ultra - Rationally Irrational. In our latest argument episode, we defend the need for deep rational and philosophical thought in an age that seems to have no sympathy for thought. Today, we examine the status of society and it's constant demand for action and change, and point to some of the most radical manifestations of it as certain segments of society advocate for a complete rejection of rational thought. In this episode we defend rational thought, and demonstrate how it helps us navigate the crazy world in which we live. Drawing upon great philosophers such as Kant, we examine the nature of reality and show how rational thought is the only tool we can use to bring us closer to understanding that reality. Come and join me if you will as we explore this rationally irrational world of ours. In the second segment of the podcast, we talk about issues such as the Israeli-Palestine conflict, the future of the Canadian political system, and the potential fall of the American superpower. It's another wild ride for the part of your brain that enjoys the finer things here on Ne Plus Ultra. Stay thinking my friends. -Spencer
