29. Is Giving Advice Immoral?

Friday, February 10, 2023 • Duration 15:44

The question in the podcast title was prompted by an article in the Guardian that addresses that very question. Here I briefly touch upon it by offering a couple of points of agreement before suggesting a particular practice that might be helpful to us without running afoul of the criticism the piece lays out.

28. The Simple and the Essential: Heidegger in Modernity II

Sunday, May 29, 2022 • Duration 44:04

In this episode, I continue discussing some key insights from Günter Figal's lecture series "Heidegger in Modernity" given at the University of Freiburg. Again, the themes of reduction, the simple, and the essential are stressed, including Heidegger's conception of philosophy as a type of wakefulness.

19. On Contexts and Rituals: Resolutions Toolbox V

Wednesday, December 30, 2020 • Duration 32:41

This is the fifth and final episode in the New Year's Resolutions mini-series. Among other, I offer specific examples of my morning and evening rituals to illustrate important principles such as habit stacking and automaticity. Not in a prescriptive sense, of course, but merely as an attempt to concretize fundamental concepts.

The blog post that I reference in the episode can be found here.

18. Handling the Other Horse: Resolutions Toolbox IV

Wednesday, December 23, 2020 • Duration 29:07

The title of the podcast references Plato's famous chariots allegory in the Phaedrus, where two horses are jostling for supremacy. One of the horses refers to our rational or cognitive sides, while the other to our passions and habits. The previous episodes kind of set up the discussion for this one in which I pull different thematic strings together and offer some suggestions for listeners to consider.

17. Why We (Often) Don't Make It: Resolutions Toolbox III

Wednesday, December 16, 2020 • Duration 20:04

Why is it that most of our decisions and goals often come to naught? That is a complex question that takes us straight to fundamental issues of human nature and agency. In this episode, I offer a crack at this conundrum by focusing on two essential realities connected to transformational aspirations: affective forecasting and the plateau of latent potential (James Clear). Personally, I cannot overestimate the role these two aspects play in the pursuit of the art of living.

16. "Know Thyself": Resolutions Toolbox II

Wednesday, December 9, 2020 • Duration 21:30

Here I follow up on some of my reflections on the nature, purpose, and obstacles of life-transforming resolutions. Without a doubt, the theme of self-knowledge is central in that regard. I offer three specific takes on that issue:

07:47 - Cognitive Illusions
10: 43 - Self-examination journaling exercise
15:30 - Life audit: habits and time

15. About those New Year's Wishes: Resolutions Toolbox I

Wednesday, December 2, 2020 • Duration 12:33

New Year's resolutions, despite being a regular staple of dismissive jokes, are a fascinating feat of human desire. They express, at times, our deepest dreams and intentions, and more importantly, a deep-seated aspiration to become different people. In the coming weeks, I hope to explore this theme, getting right down to practical insights.

14. Understanding and Dialogue: What I Have Learned from H. G. Gadamer

Sunday, November 22, 2020 • Duration 38:43

Understanding, dialogue, interpretation, attention, and openness are essential ingredients of meaningful interpersonal relationships. They also happen to be central themes in one of the most important contributions to contemporary thought - H. G. Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics. In this episode, I relate some of the ways in which he has influenced me.

13. The Will to Untruth: What I Have Learned from F. Nietzsche

Sunday, November 15, 2020 • Duration 58:22

That Nietzsche should be an influential voice in my life, might come as surprise to some. But then again, perhaps not. After all, isn't he an individual singularly devoted to the craft of living, of turning our lives into a work of art? Here, though, I am focusing more narrowly on his view of truth, or rather, the will to untruth, and the way his perspective on the issues has challenged me personally.

12. On Imagination: Its Meaning and Importance for the Craft of Living

Sunday, November 1, 2020 • Duration 01:00:53

For a while now I have reflected on the significance of imagination for human flourishing, both societal and personal. Here I tackle just some aspects of this important topic, including some suggestions as to how one might be more intentional about honing imaginative skills. I should add that the audio quality of this recording is not quite up to standard. My apologies on that front. I faced some difficulties this week, so I had to scramble by going into a plan B mode. Please accept my apologies on that front.
