Travis and Jack are joined by Devin O’Shea to examine why even powerful billionaires like Peter Thiel and Jeffrey Epstein seek increasingly exclusive associations.  Devin turns to the anthropological work The Power of Ritual in Prehistory: Secret Societies and Origins of Social Complexity by Michael Hayden to show how and why societies develop groups that declare themselves keepers of esoteric knowledge.
