What they didn’t tell you about Critical Theory

Horkheimer & Adorno, The Dialectic of Enlightenment

Critical Theory is the sort of thing 1% of people on the Internet argue with a different 1% about. The thinkers who created it as part of the Frankfurt School, however, ranged over a wide array of topics that were often prescient in getting to the heart of what it was to be human amid the quickening pace of modernity.

This can be a bit dense, but I highly recommend persevering with it.  It's the kind of podcast where individual sentences that might deeply inform how you see the world make it worth the effort.
