In this short-ish Inbetweener episode, The Occupational Philosophers dive into and muse on the idea of Serendipity. Between them they explore:

  • Actually, what is Serendipity? (you will have to listen)
  • Why dumb luck isn't a thing - despite that person always getting a job they don't deserve or are qualified for
  • The danger of trying to manifest middle-class moments
  • Why it's essential to be open to the world around us - as chance encounters are everywhere
  • How our biases rationalise chance encounters to pretend they didn't happen
  • Why curiosity is at the heart of moments of serendipity
  • How being a super explorer can create moments of serendipity
  • How the discovery of Penicillin is considered a triumph of serendipity
  • The power of a watermelon, an earbud and a jelly bean in the right hands
  • And finally, how the unlucky butcher can be a metaphor for us all

The Occupational Philosophers hope you enjoy the show!
