Peter Boghossian and popular YouTuber King Crocoduck explore the erosion of traditional sources of meaning and the growing reliance on corrupt alternatives. They emphasize the importance of robust epistemology necessary for societal progress and individual well-being. Topics include meaning in life, hedonism, the implications of naturalism and Darwinism, and more.
King Crocoduck is a biomedical physicist, philosopher, and YouTuber. He asked to remain anonymous in this interview.
"Things are going to slide (slide) in all directions; Won't be nothing (won't be); Nothing you can measure anymore; The blizzard, the blizzard of the world; Has crossed the threshold; And it's overturned; The order of the soul"
