EV - 101 Social Progress in the Void with Bo Winegard pt.1

EV - 101 Social Progress in the Void with Bo Winegard pt.1

My guest this week is Bo Winegard, Assistant Professor at Marietta College, cohost of the psyphilopod podcast, and frequent contributor to Quillette. We've engaged in several disagreements on twitter and thought it could be valuable to debate some of these issues on the show. We focused our debate on the question "should society attempt to promote social progress by changing human nature". The argument is naturally wide ranging.

Invocation: The Tower of Babel
