Philosophy season continues! In this episode, we talk to Nicholas Drake, a graduate student and researcher at the Australian National University.
We discuss the different aims that philosophical work might have, and how what "good" means differs based on those aims -- whether it's to satisfy curiosity, find some deeper truth, or advance a larger, possibly non-philosophical goal.
