In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the Socratic method — the technique of relentless questioning that Socrates used to challenge assumptions and seek truth. They discuss how it worked in practice, with examples from Plato's early dialogues like the Euthyphro and Meno. They also examine the method's influence on modern education, law, and philosophy, and consider criticisms: can it be manipulative? Does it always lead to truth? Along the way, they touch on elenchus, aporia, and the Socratic irony. Perfect for anyone curious about how a single questioning technique shaped Western thought.
