35 分钟Hello, everyone.
I'm Stephen West.
This is Philosophize This.
Patreon.com slash philosophize this.
By the way, thanks to all the fine people on Patreon that have tested the Philosophize This app this last month.
Just want to get it right before, you know,
before we release it to everybody in the world for free all at once, all the time.
It's kind of a big thing.
So thanks for the feedback.
In addition, there's philosophical writing on Substack.
It philosophizes on there if that's something you're interested in.
Hope you love the show today.
So I made a joke last episode where I said that for Peter Slaughterdyke,
in a sense, you're a person that's been trained from the moment you were born.
From the moment your doctor rescued you from that spelunking accident on the day of your birth,
you have been trained in various ways that shape what you even see as possible in the world.
It was a hilarious joke.
I won the Comedy Congressional Medal of Honor over here for making such a fine comparison.
But the really funny thing is that it actually wasn't entirely true of Slaughter Dyke.
And clarifying this here, it's going to be an important thing for starting this episode
