I really enjoyed my conversation with David, who asked very deep and difficult questions!
NEW EPISODE OUT NOW!
For the final ep in our current series on the history of bad ideas, David talks to philosopher @axdouglas.bsky.social about the damage that can be done by the idea of identity. Why is the search for a distinctive personal identity a futile quest?

Teotihuacan was first constructed with palaces that indicate social hierarchy. But, at some point, the citizens began “supplying high-quality apartments for nearly all the city’s population, regardless of wealth,” David Graeber and David Wengrow write.
