Certainty feels reassuring but it can also shut down reasonable thinking, dialogue, and better judgment.

In this episode, host Dr. Laurance Splitter introduces the central ideas behind The Rest Is Uncertain and explains why certainty can be more limiting than helpful when navigating complex questions and challenges through what he calls a philosophical lens. He emphasizes the importance of  dialogue, and of questioning our assumptions, and introduces a recurring theme of the series: whether we see ourselves as isolated individuals or as members of something larger and why that distinction matters.
