Christopher Nolan’s new film Oppenheimer caused me to reflect on technological advancements such as the atomic bomb, AI, and genetic engineering. Do we control scientific advancements, or do they control us? Sometimes it seems like technology has a mind of its own. Should we be concerned about this? If so, how do we control it? Today we discuss all this and more.

Some interactions on Twitter got me thinking about how rap, comedy, and art can oftentimes have greater influence than philosophy and psychology.

A recent uncomfortable social situation prompted me to think about the importance of having courage and resolve. We all face peer-pressure, but how can we be the types of people who stand strong in our convictions, rather than being tossed and turned by fleeting desires or social pressures? Today we sit down to discuss this and more.
