Justin Murphy; Independent Social Scientist
Justin Murphy is an independent social scientist who writes about philosophy, science, and technology. Vance and Justin talk about why he left the safety net of academia to teach courses independently online and how this choice is telling of a broader trend that Justin refers to as prestige defection. Vance and Justin also discuss Rene Girard, covering his views on mimetic desire and mob mentalities as well as Urbit, Bitcoin and other tools for sovereignty as a modern creator.
