This week's podcast answers the paradox of Theseus' boat. In Plutarch's "Lives", Theseus sails around so much his boat wears out piece by piece and the pieces are replaced multiple times. A poor Greek fisherman named Ikea and his workman, Allen, gather up the pieces and build a boat (or ten). Allen supplies the one tool needed, a wrench. But is it the same boat? Answers throughout the ages have been, "yes because it has the same I.P.", "no", and "yes, it has the same soul", but the real answer is that we are all the boat but our primitive brains preclude us realizing it.
