Hazbin Hotel and Critiquing Universalism

vendredi 5 décembre 2025Duration 01:35:31

Once again, I want to open with "I'm sorry" for all of this. If you're considering condemning us to content creator hell for our takes, first consider the question: What Would Charlie Do? Charlie would say, despite our worst takes, we are still redeemable! So, we're doing the first two seasons of Hazbin Hotel and doing a 200 level discussion on universalism about salvation and why it may be the best option for believers but it's still a legitimizing myth. Please don't hate us!

Sinners and The Color Line

mercredi 29 octobre 2025Duration 01:25:30

Hell yeah, been fixing to do cover this new hotness since the moment I saw it. Now that it's widely available we can talk about all the ways it messes with the color line, what it says about solidarity politics, how it sets up the invention of bluegrass, and what the vampires really represent! Plus, keep your eyes out for a very related NASA!

Starship Troopers

lundi 24 février 2025Duration 01:23:01

It's fascism season in America again, so we're celebrating with the fashest satire of all. To help us get in the spirit we're joined by special guest Jordan Carroll (@jordanscarroll.bsky.social), author of Speculative Whiteness: Science Fiction and the Alt-Right. We discuss whether satire really works on fascism and why fascists are so keen on a genre that seems like the opposite of everything they value.

0G168: Animatrix and AI Empathy

Episode 168

mercredi 8 décembre 2021Duration 53:29

Just like we bridge the gap between movies, we must bridge the gap between the meat and machine. For both, we turn to the Animatrix, some of the best animated sci-fi there is. We cover several of the episodes and a couple issues around the alignment problem and awakening.   Animatrix: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0328832/   Editing by Luisa Lyons, check out her amazing podcast Filmed Live Musicals: http://www.filmedlivemusicals.com/   Support us at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/0G   Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/0gPhilosophy   Join our Facebook discussion group (make sure to answer the questions to join): https://www.facebook.com/groups/985828008244018/   Email us at: philosophersinspace@gmail.com   If you have time, please write us a review on iTunes.

0G166: Foundation and Cultural Literacy Pt2

mercredi 24 novembre 2021Duration 59:46

Now I'm gonna assume that you've both done the math and have achieved complete cultural literacy so you'll both know what's coming and get all the references. We cover the challenges of maintaining a canon and what is most worth preserving.

0G165: Foundation and Longtermism Pt1

Episode 165

mercredi 17 novembre 2021Duration 53:29

I'm just gonna assume you've already done the math and knew what sort of meta commentary I would put here, so I'll save us both the trouble. We're discussing longtermism, but I guess your magic math also told you that.

0G164: Dollhouse 1.1 and Ethics of Intermittent Personhood

mercredi 27 octobre 2021Duration 01:00:06

Let's imagine your current identity was actually perfectly programmed to love every part of this podcast. Would that really be a bad thing? We're all having fun here watching a totally not creepy show about programming people to be exactly what we need them to be, plus they also have asthma. We try to figure out where the immorality is in all of this.   Content: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollhouse_(TV_series)   Editing by Luisa Lyons, check out her amazing podcast Filmed Live Musicals: http://www.filmedlivemusicals.com/   Support us at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/0G   Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/0gPhilosophy   Join our Facebook discussion group (make sure to answer the questions to join): https://www.facebook.com/groups/985828008244018/   Email us at: philosophersinspace@gmail.com   If you have time, please write us a review on iTunes.
