In this special episode of the podcast, Ethan and Timothy discuss the correlation between human genius and independence, and its cultivation in contemporary society. The creativity crisis, they suggest, has been amplified by too much standardization and not enough quiet moments. They compare notes on the importance of general education in college instruction, and how they led them to more independent, multidisciplinary thinking over time. The life and work of Albert Einstein and Leonardo da Vinci are referenced as truly independent geniuses who benefitted from multidisciplinary pursuits.
