Ep. 99 - Originality
In this episode, Aaron and Bethany (sans Jp) discuss the value of originality. Does originiality necessarily enhance the significance of a work, or do we overestimate the value of novelty? Are we afraid of being original because it would require vulnerability, and so choose irony? Is sincerity, perhaps, a superior quality than originality?
