#44. Logic ft. Greg Restall

Calum and Adam sit down with Dr Greg Restall to get an introduction to the field of logic within Philosophy. They talk about what logic can be like at the start of your university philosophy career, and how the "baby logician" can avoid falling into the trap of becoming a "debate bro" who fails to further the discourse. Greg then also explains paradoxes, as well as what the current field of logic looks like.
