In this episode, our dynamic hosts, Jeffrey Hansler and Rona Lewis, delve into Friedrich Nietzsche's provocative essay, On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense, as posted by Jonny Thomson on Big Think’s website. Nietzsche challenges the very notion of objective truth, suggesting that what we consider "truth" is merely a series of metaphors and conventions we've forgotten are not the real deal.

Jeffrey brings a unique twist by connecting Nietzsche's ideas to the 19th-century fable of Truth and Lie and even throws in a reference to DOGE. Rona keeps it grounded, exploring how these philosophical concepts play out in everyday business conversations and why people often struggle with the truth in professional settings.

Special guests Willy and Roscoe join the podcast briefly, with Roscoe contributing in spirit (and perhaps a quiet bark or two).
