Joel and Travis finish Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus in this episode. Why do smart people, like babies, stare at the finger rather than where it is pointing? And what does this have to do with talk of God and debating empirical data? Also, when should we be silent? All that is answered...sort of...in this podcast.

Wandering Toward Wisdom is back and beginning a series on Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, led by Joel, though Travis will ask some questions and make silly comments throughout. We have all been waiting breathlessly for someone to talk about a book that is drier than its pretentious name, but Joel promises that it has a really good and important point. That is, if he can ever really say what it is. In this episode, Joel starts by telling us about Wittgenstein's interesting and strange life, and how he became perhaps the most important philosopher of the 20th century.
