Episode 126: Aristotle, Eudaimonia and Virtue p.3

This week listen in as Mike and Danny give up and simply do what works. Yes, it’s enlightened self interest time here where what is right plays second fiddle to what happens to do the job. Yes, it’s big fish verses bigger fish in the turbulent waters of ethical theory as we carefully avoid gobbling up the tiny clown fish just in case it happens to be good friends with a gang of whale sharks. I mean, where are the gods when you genuinely need someone around to make an absolute judgement about something? Everything counts in large amounts, right? All this plus a shout out to Sorren the archaeologist. Don’t blame us, we aren’t responsible, it was the devil that made us do it… or society… or my upbringing … but not us, never us, we had no choice in the matter, no choice at all. Anyway, everyone’s doing it.
