I started this podcast in High School as an endeavor to take myself, those I talk with, and you deep into the realm of what is just within our grasp. In each episode, I present a subject, theory, or viewpoint that aims to provide a new angle on something you may have taken for granted. As we explore new paradigms and ideas, I only ask that you keep an open mind.

Economic Systems Pt.3: The Caliphates & Industrial Nations
In this final (for now) episode of my series on monetary/economic history I talk about the economic mode of the Islamic Caliphates from around 800 - 1200 CE. Then I talk about how global trade and empire, coupled with industrialization created capitalism. While I don't go into detail about Capitalism itself, I discuss the philosophical and economic writings of Adam Smith, and later Karl Marx.
