Exploring the Interplay of Belief and Knowledge in Academic Thinking

Do you know how to think? How do you think? What do you believe? What do you know? How do you KNOW what you claim to know? How do the authorities KNOW what they claim to know? Can we really KNOW anything? How do we distinguish between knowledge and beliefs? How do we know if we, or someone else, has mistaken a belief for objective knowledge? In this episode, Alec is joined by Dr. Jordan Grant, someone he considers one of the best underground philosophers and thinkers of our time, to discuss all of that and more.
