New episode of the podcast released on hope as a foundation for existentialism. It’s about the early work of Ernst Bloch. Hope as anticipatory consciousness. The darkness of the lived moment. Music as an experiential metaphysics and gateway to the Not-Yet. Hope you love it.

New episode of the podcast just dropped on Camus and Kafka! #228. We talk about Camus’ book The Fall and what the main character represents in his larger project. We also talk about someone Camus deeply admired, Franz Kafka, and how to think of the images he created in his work. :)

Thanks so much for listening!

Albert Camus. New episode just released, #226, on his long essay called The Rebel. Hope you love it. :)

Today we talk about Camus’ concept of rebellion. We talk about solidarity as the foundation for justice. We talk about the death penalty as a symbol of premeditated murder disguised as virtue.

Hope you enjoy the new Camus episode dropped yesterday. We talk about why Camus saw himself as an artist and not a philosopher. We talk about happiness. The Mediterranean lifestyle. The sun as a symbol of immanence. Revolt being a descriptive claim— not a normative one. Be well, my friends. :)

New podcast released! We talk about the relationship between philosophy and religion. The duck-rabbit as a metaphor that may have something useful to teach us about the way we experience reality. The enormous difficulty of fully addressing the question: what is religion? Hope you love it! :)

Thanks so much!

Last night an episode of Philosophize This! was released on love in The Brothers Karamazov. We talk about Dostoevsky’s existential, tragic form of Christianity. Family as a microcosm of society. Active love as an experiential framing. The Grand Inquisitor. Hope you enjoy, my friends. :)

Thanks so much!

Brand new episode of the podcast just dropped. Of the five great novels from Dostoevsky this is number four: The Idiot. Hope you love it and have a great week. :)

In the episode: we talk about the curse of sainthood. The connection between beauty and morality. And how beauty can save the world.

So cool you’re interested! Keep in mind that a big percentage of her work you can access today was compiled after her death from personal journals, letters, etc. and weren’t written by her intended for a public audience. So there’s a lot of references like the one you mention.

First episode of the year. It’s on Dostoevsky’s book Demons. It’s out on all the platforms. Hope you enjoy it and have a great week, my friends. :)

We talk about western liberalism, the lack of moral leadership, the promises of Nihilism, and Dostoevsky’s complicated relationship to faith.

Another year of the podcast in the books. Thank you everyone for making it possible in all the ways you support. New episode dropped last night #219 on the philosophical themes of Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment. 

Hope you all enjoy your respective holidays! Be well. :)

That’s an interesting way to engage with both their work and possibly get to a new interpretation. Respect for going there. Thanks for listening!
