In this episode, we’re talking about Dostoevsky’s The Idiot — a story that feels surprisingly modern for a 19th-century novel. Prince Myshkin shows up in a world driven by ego, greed, and power plays, trying to live with total honesty and kindness. Sound familiar? We explore how his struggle fits right into today’s age of social media, moral gray zones, and endless noise — and what it really means to stay good when the world calls you naïve.
