So what remains? Find out in this last episode in the miniseries about human nature! We will figuratively go back in time to investigate the origins of what makes you, well, you. And, vastly more important, what doesn't make a difference. Be prepared for a roller-coaster ride! For more(and the show notes), head to dbojar.com/category/podcast/.

Beauty & the Beast – Conceptions of Nature, Goodness, and the Evolutionary Reality
Did you ever stand before a meadow filled with life, basking in the sun, and wondered about the beauty of nature? You're not alone. Especially nowadays, far removed from nature as we are, we're prone to idealizing and idolizing nature and and all things natural. Here, you'll find out why nature's messy and not all that great, especially at any given time point. We'll explore the love life of beetles, the destiny of virgin islands, and the gory past of most of our continents to arrive at a more complete and honest view of what natural can do - and what it can't.
