In the finale of season one, Barrett and Luna tackle the former president’s mugshot and the importance of challenging power. They reflect on the season, diving deeper into the Western understanding of morality in relation to philosopher Nietzsche’s idea of “the origin” of morality. Barrett also breaks down how the mistranslation Plato may have impaired America and Western civilization from creating “good” sustainable societies.
