Ep. 91 - The Spirit of Science - (Arrival)
<p>In this episode we dive into the fabulous 2016 film Arrival; directed by Denis Villenueve and based on a short story by Ted Chiang. In this episode we discuss the contextual nature of language, seeing the big picture, education and learning, fractal reality, the importance of failure, the importance of excellence, foresight, choosing the hard path, and having an existential meta awareness of death all the time. I am stoked because, for the first time in three years, David is back on the show! Thanks for listening!</p>
