About this listen

In this inaugural episode of CW&CW, we turn to Benjamin Franklin, exploring the ascetic realities behind the man who became the face of American capitalism. Drawing on his early years as a disciplined, vegetarian typesetter, we question the easy opposition between the practical and the profound, exploring instead how cheap diets and curated social engagement can foster genuine self-creation, and how intentional systems may shape reality from within.
