For this show we will pick a handful of myths and misconceptions about Objectivism and shoot them down. We thought this would be a good approach to help clear up some confusions that may give people the wrong idea about Objectivism and prevent them from wanting to investigate it further. A few possible topics include the differences between selfishness and “cynical exploitativeness”, different kinds of altruism, emotions as a product of ideas rather than a source of knowledge, atheism and agnosticism, and what it means for reality to be black and white. Arthur Lechtholz-Zey from the UCLA Objectivist Club, LOGIC, will be joining us. We hope that you’ll be joining us as well!
