Historical Metaphor with Josh Rosenthal


Listen Later

On this extra special episode, the boys welcome Medieval scholar, serial founder, and all around big brain Josh Rosenthal to discuss the parallels between the Network Age and the Renaissance (as well as what lessons we can learn from the technological revolutions of the past). This was a true banger of an episode, covering everything from technological determinism to the modern Medicis to Blue Collar Crypto and the effect of blockchain on our daily lives. All this plus Martin Luther memes, Machiavelli, the death of subscription fees.
