The wheel didn’t just move us forward — it changed how we imagined movement itself.
From ancient chariots and imperial roads to railways, factories, and fiber optics, this episode traces the strange, spiraling legacy of the wheel.
Once sacred, once strategic, now invisible — the wheel shaped not just how we travel, but how we think: about power, time, and what it means to be going somewhere.
Is faster always better?
Are we moving — or just being moved?
A reflection on motion, myth, memory, and the still point beneath it all.
