David and Tamler talk wrap up the new year talking about intellectual virtues and Rachel Fraser’s excellent essay “Against Humility.” What is intellectual humility exactly and do we need it for knowledge and understanding? Does the value of humility depend on the person or the circumstances? Are there contexts where intellectual arrogance is the epistemic virtue? We arrive at the definitive answers to these questions and anyone who disagrees with us is a stupid idiot. Plus in the second segment we present THE AMBIES (..the ambies), the final episode of "The Ambulators," our episode by episode breakdown of David Milch’s Deadwood. It’s a clip-filled awards ceremony to celebrate what might be the great TV series of all time. Highlights include Best Quote, Best Scene, Best Character (other than Al), Best Slur, Best Antisemitic slur, and lots more. <a href= "https://aeon.co/essays/why-intellectual-humility-isnt-always-a-virtue"> "Why intellectual humility isn't always a virtue" by Rachel Fraser</a> [aeon.co] <a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadwood_(TV_series)">Deadwood (TV Series)</a> [wikipedia.org]
