What I'm listening to: "David Edmonds on Wittgenstein's Poker" (2020) "But there was this huge gulf between them in one way. There was a class gap. Wittgenstein was from one of the richest families in Europe. [...] Popper, on the other hand, was from a middle class family. His father was a lawyer. Their wealth was wiped out in the hyperinflation of the nineteen twenties. We came to believe that that class gap was part of the personal antagonism between them" https://philosophybites.com/podcast/david-edmonds-on-wittgensteins-poker/
