Can Philosophy Save My Life?
Philosophy matters more now than ever. It isn’t just abstract debates and old books—it’s about asking the right questions to make sense of the world and our place in it. In this first episode, we break down what philosophy is, why it matters, and how it shows up in everyday life. From decision-making to morality to the meaning of life, philosophy is everywhere—whether you realize it or not. If you've ever wondered why things are the way they are, you’re already thinking like a philosopher.
