#3 Passionate Rationality

A conversation between Will Conable and Trevan Penrod. Will is a Teacher at University of Oregon who up until recently was on track to become a professor. We talk about his journey through the Coast Guard, Higher Education, and what has brought a change of pace in his career path. We dive into passion versus rationality, conservatism versus liberalism, and a more proper way to, "argue." We end with a discussion about free will and the difference between, "Radical free will," as an idea versus the scientific and practical sense of the word. For a deeper dive into these concepts listen to, Making Sense with Sam Harris podcast, "#241 Final Thoughts on Free Will." Read, "Free Will," by Sam Harris. Watch, "The Push," and, "Sacrifice," by Derren Brown on Netflix. "Loki," on Disney Plus. And a wide range of other materials.

Intro and Outro Music: Pilot Around the Stars, "Too Bad, So Sad."
