This is episode 9 of Tim’s Two Cents – the outrageous show where Tim argues with himself.

This week’s show is all about despotism. Most of us in the modern world assume autocratic rule by one person is something completely negative. But are there some redeeming features to this strongman type of rule?

In a world where aggression and compulsory governance are currently unavoidable, is a dictator truly the worst kind of leader? Could it possibly be good to give one person complete power? Or does the corrupting influence of ultimate power always take over and lead to destruction?

Those are certainly some tough questions, so Tim will take them on in this brand new episode about the oldest form of governance in the world.

After last week’s emotionless journey through Stoicism (http://ymb.tc/ttc8), this week’s ‘sode is sure to get your blood pumping. Tune in now for your weekly dose of wisdom from Tim!
