Never meet your heroes. But why? We as a culture are in love with the idea of exceptions and super-humanity. The natural converse of a media that exploits our own shortcomings for profit is the creation of manufactured images of idols, be they physical, mental, or emotional, that have seemingly no flaws at all.
But, the reality is, people are very much flawed. No genius ever avoided moments of simple idiocy; No guru, moments of awkwardness; No wise man, moments of folly.
And yet, these things should not detract from the value of their work otherwise. Indeed, even a foolish person should be allowed the possibility of having moments of great inspiration, and bad ideas aspects of some value.
In this episode, we explore the nature of wisdom, expertise, and the messy process of speculation that leads to improving ideas. Along the way, I make a point to remind my listeners that I too am not beyond the ability to talk utter nonsense. For better And worse! Thanks for listening!
