This month we're featuring episodes from the archives in which John and Ken focus on big thinkers born in May: Niccolò Machiavelli (May 3, 1469), Søren Kierkegaard (May 5, 1813), David Hume (May 7, 1711), and John Stuart Mill (May 20, 1806). May also marks the anniversary of Karl Marx (May 5, 1818), who was the subject of a recent episode with Josh, Ray, and Vanessa Wills from Georgetown University, author of Marx's Ethical Vision.
