Charles Darwin wasn't the first or only scientist to grasp the theory of evolution through natural selection, but he became its father and icon. In this classic episode, learn about the man who reluctantly but bravely became the source of the divide between religion and science.
# Charles Darwin: The Man Who Changed Everything
Josh and Chuck dive deep into the life of Charles Darwin, exploring how this anxious but brilliant naturalist became the fulcrum that shifted the world from religious to scientific thinking. They trace his journey from reluctant medical student to legendary five-year voyage aboard the HMS Beagle, his decades of meticulous research at his English estate, and the dramatic publication of "On the Origin of Species" that ignited a firestorm of debate still raging today. Along the way, you'll discover why Darwin procrastinated for 30 years, how his rival Alfred Russell Wallace nearly beat him to the punch, and why his theory threatened to overturn centuries of scientific and religious assumptions about humanity's place in the world.
