In the very first episode of Pawlitics, hosts William and Abe, with guest speaker Ambrosio Rodriguez, kick things off by exploring one of philosophy’s oldest questions: what does it mean to live a good life, and how does technology shape that in the world we live in today? They chose this as their opening topic deliberately, believing that before diving into big issues in politics, philosophy, economics, or current events, we must establish the foundational question that underlies all of it—what are all of these humanistic systems for? Whether you think tech is a tool for connection or a source of distraction, this episode will leave you thinking about the values at the center of your own life.
