Mark and Adam are here to talk about metaphysics, but man, are they angry about it! In this episode, they break down the various approaches to metaphysics in the Modern Era, from Schopenhauer's Idealism, the concept of teleology, to Peirce's triadic system. Even though they are not as entertained by metaphysics as they are by many other topics, they will discuss it all the same!  Follow us on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions

Adam's favorite topic: language! In this episode, Mark and Adam break down the various philosophical opinions on language in the Early Modern Era of philosophy. They discuss Frege's sense and reference, Russell's theory of description, an Wittgenstein's picture theory, language-games, and private language. Well, they discuss these topics for about half the episode. The second half is all about the use of language in our current political climate and how important it is to keep language open and to always do your research.

On this episode, Adam is...well, kinda bored actually. Mark and Adam break down the approaches to logic of various philosophers in the Modern Era of philosophy. They look at the empiricist logic of Mill, Frege's refoundation of logic, the inductive reasoning of Peirce, and the saga of the Principia Mathematica, all while discussing the absolute importance of being able to use logical reasoning. Stay tuned after the outro to listen to an overly long argument about whether or not we are same sides of a different coin!  Follow us on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions

What are the qualities of a righteous government? Is it complete governance by the people? Complete authority from the government? A mix of both? In this episode, Mark and Adam look at the answers to these questions provided by philosophers from the Early Modern era. They delve into Machiavelli's practical, yet cynical and brutal approach to how to lead a group of people. They look at the complete impracticality of a Utopian society and discuss the supremely influential ideals of John Locke. Also influential but destructive are the beliefs of Rousseau and Hegel, who herald the abilities of the majority or the state to always determine what is best. All these philosophers and more (including various political rants) are discussed in this episode of Unlimited Opinions!  Follow as on Twitter! @UlmtdOpinions
