Where do our values come from? Can we evolve them to live better? And why does "value" mean something totally different from "values"?

In this episode, we meet an intentional community called Magic that explores those questions through a scientific lens, in a philosophy called valuescience.

David Schrom, the community's founder, tells his story of challenging the narratives we inherit, which culminates in a painful estrangement from his father.

Personal reflections on valuescience and David's story help me reconcile past moral questions of working in tech, and grapple with how difficult it is to examine the ideas we become attached to.

Trigger warning: This episode contains mentions of suicide that some listeners may find upsetting.
