Show Notes
On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Lionel conducts a thought experiment to define what a "hero" actually is, arguing it requires more than just being a "good man" or a victim of tragedy. Lionel challenges the audience with controversial questions: Is Donald Trump a hero for risking his reputation, and can a police dog truly be heroic if it’s just following training?. The conversation spans from the conspiracies surrounding MLK's assassination to the tactical genius of military enemies like General Giap, all while debunking the notion that the truth sets you free—because sometimes, the truth just gets you killed.
