"I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." — Voltaire.

In this episode, we journey through the Enlightenment—an era that reshaped how we think, speak, and challenge the world around us. It's not just about history or philosophy; it's about the courage to question, to reason, and to value freedom of thought above all. I also share my personal reflections on how Enlightenment ideals still echo in our daily lives, and why they matter more than ever today.

We hear it everywhere—"Just be happy." But what does that actually mean? In this episode, we dive into the many layers of happiness through a philosophical lens. From the Stoics to the skeptics, from virtue to pleasure, we explore how different schools of thought have tried to define happiness—and why it’s not the same for everyone. We also touch on cultural differences, ancient wisdom, and the very human desire to live a fulfilling life. This isn’t a step-by-step guide to happiness—it’s a conversation about what it means to seek it in the first place.🎙️
