Erwin and Aaron McManus are back together again after Erwin returns home from attending TEDMonterey 2021: The Case for Optimism, a massive conference of innovative thinkers and creators in the areas of technology, entertainment, and design.
Erwin and Aaron discuss the idea that optimism is the proposition that all evils are due to lack of knowledge, a mental framework Erwin vehemently rebukes. They discuss the real root of optimism and hope in people’s lives: is it the intellectual ceiling, or the human dilemma?
The duo ultimately bring it back to two questions: how can humanity make the world better, and how can we as humans get better ourselves?
Don’t miss this discussion of ideas that have stymied the world’s best thinkers, and get ready to have your own thinking challenged and elevated. —
