In this episode, we delve into the concept of chivalry, exploring its historical roots and its relevance in modern society. We discuss how chivalry has evolved from a medieval code of conduct associated with knights to a broader ethical framework that emphasizes respect, protection of the vulnerable, and self-discipline. The conversation also addresses the implications of gender roles in the context of chivalry and advocates for a more inclusive understanding of what it means to be chivalrous today.

Thanks for listening! 💙
