Episode notes

I think almost all my dogs have killed squirrels Except the little 16 pound beagle. She can't catch them Temulars dog just goes for babies Well, no these dogs don't my my dog tests though would chase after squirrels, but she never got them My squirrels are fast. They're quick You know, there's dogs though that are like like Rhodesian Ridgebacks that like we're bred to like hunt lions So there's just yeah, but that's a lot. That's different. It's not a squirrel like those are two different Also, the Ridgebacks don't catch the lions They just like Dentists that killed the African lion couldn't get a squirrel.

Special guest Valerie Tiberius joins us to talk about values, well-being, and friendship. What role should reflection play in the good life? What about emotion? How can we make our values more consistent and sustainable? Do we know our friends better than we know ourselves? Plus, are philosophers experts? Experts of what? What are the boundaries of our discipline? And what motivates a gay Mormon to stay in the Church? In the first segment, David and Tamler list a few things they're grateful for on Thanksgiving, including you, the listeners (awwwwww...)
