Carrying a Conversation on the Back of Our Shoulders (Part 1)
We sat down to talk about Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" and seeing as the novel is over a thousand pages, our conversation ran a few hours. We discuss both elements of the book's plot along with many of the greater ideas that were presented within. In this episode we only cover parts one and two of the novel, with the third part to follow in a coming episode. I'm sure we missed many details and interesting ideas, but there was a lot of ground to cover and we're only human. Enjoy.
