episode 34: Episode 34: Mirrors and Metaphysics in “Tlön, Uqbar and Orbis Tertius” by Jorge Luis Borges


“Tlön, Uqbar and Orbis Tertius” is an almost prophetic short story by Jorge Luis Borges about reality and the experiment of thought. In this episode, we sit down with our valued guest Thomas to discuss this complex labyrinth of a story. In our conversation, we dive into the strange world of Uqbar and the even stranger world of Tlön.
