Collection summary covering past 30 days of combined episodes (AI-generated):
The episodes described across these podcasts span a diverse range of philosophical, cultural, and practical themes. There's a notable focus on classical philosophy, examining the works and thoughts of ancient philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, Nietzsche, and Marcus Aurelius. Discussions delve into their enduring ideas on ethics, politics, and human nature, often exploring their relevance to contemporary issues.
Podcasts also explore modern philosophical debates and the intersection of philosophy with other disciplines. For example, episodes address the philosophical aspects of artificial intelligence, technology’s impact on society, and the continuing relevance of political philosophies such as liberalism and libertarianism. Another significant theme is the philosophy of science, where discussions often intersect with current scientific and technological advancements, including gene editing, AI, and economic systems.
Several episodes blend philosophical inquiry with practical wisdom. These include discussions on Stoicism, its application to modern life, and its insights on personal challenges like health, wealth, and self-improvement. Episodes also explore how philosophical ideas shape personal and societal views on ethics, moral behavior, and the pursuit of happiness.
A recurring motif is the exploration of cultural phenomena through a philosophical lens. This includes the dissection of literary works, mythologies, and popular culture to uncover deeper meanings and cultural impacts. The podcasts provide reflections on significant historical and contemporary figures, such as abolitionists and political leaders, to understand their philosophical stances and contributions.
In addition, there’s a focus on the empirical application of philosophy, seen in episodes discussing landscape studies, political violence, and communal rituals. The podcasts aim to uncover how philosophical principles manifest in real-world contexts, including social justice, economic practices, and environmental issues.
Overall, these podcasts offer an expansive survey of philosophical thought, blending theoretical discussions with practical, cultural, and historical analyses to provide a comprehensive understanding of both classical and modern philosophical issues.

![]() Profile • Site • RSS • Apple Podcasts 238 episodes 2020 to 2024 Median: 51 minutes Collection: Philosophy Themes (AI-generated): Discussion of Epicurean philosophy • Analysis of Epicurus' works • Cicero's critiques of Epicureanism • Lucretius' "On The Nature of Things" • Interviews with scholars • Norman DeWitt's interpretations Description (podcaster-provided): Lucretius Today is a podcast dedicated to learning Epicurean philosophy through study of the poet Lucretius, who lived in the age of Julius Caesar and wrote "On The Nature of Things," the only complete presentation of Epicurus' ideas left to us from the ancient world. We'll walk you line by line through the six books of Lucretius' poem, and we'll discuss how Epicurean philosophy can apply to you today. In this podcast we won't be talking about modern political issues. How you apply Epicurus in your own life is entirely up to you. Over at the Epicureanfriends.com web forum, we apply this approach by following a set of ground rules we call "Not Neo-Epicurean, But Epicurean." Epicurean philosophy is not a religion, it''s not Stoicism, it's not Humanism, it's not Libertarianism, it's not Atheism, and it's not Marxism or any other philosophy - it is unique in the history of Western Civilization, and as we explore Lucretius's poem you'll quickly see how that is the case. The home page of this podcast is LucretiusToday.com, and there you can find a free copy of the version of the poem from which we are reading, and links to where you can discuss the poem between episodes at Epicureanfriends.com.

Anyone interested in participating, whether to learn about Plato or to contribute to the dialogue, is welcome to join. Hosted by amateur philosopher James Myers, the podcast is held through Meetup.com and inquiries can be e-mailed to [email protected]. Episodes are lightly edited for clarity, with care to avoid compromising the contributions made by participants. Wherever we go in our discussions, we gain knowledge from each other’s perspectives, and for the increase in knowledge we invite everyone to add their voice to the dialogue. Plato, without a doubt, would have imagined no better way than in dialogue for knowledge – the account of the reasons why – to find its home.

![]() Profile • Site • RSS • Apple Podcasts 25 episodes 2021 to 2022 Median: 62 minutes Collection: Philosophy Themes (AI-generated): Socratic inquiries into philosophical questions • Discussions featuring experts • Exploration of concepts like existence, time, love, and consciousness • Dialectical format with diverse topics Description (podcaster-provided): “What Is X?” has been described as “a cross between a Platonic dialogue and ‘The Price Is Right.’” It combines dialectical inquiry of the sort perfected by Socrates and his interlocutors with a distinctly ludic spirit. Here’s how it works: For each episode, host Justin E. H. Smith invites on a guest distinguished in their field (or occasionally a “regular” person who really likes to talk). Smith asks the guest to answer a question of the form “What is X?” (for example, “What is beauty?” “What is nature?” “What are dreams?”), after which the two partners in dialogue undertake a Socratic inquiry into the nature of X, in search of a definition that satisfies both of them. There are three possible outcomes: agreement, disagreement, and aporia (Greek for “dead end”), each with its own sound effect: if we arrive at agreement, a church bell will chime; disagreement is signaled by a bleating goat; if aporia is the best we can do, we will hear naught but a gust of wind. Rigorous but freewheeling, fun and serious at once, accessibly highbrow, these conversations model rational inquiry in a new way, providing answers for truth-seekers... or perhaps just more questions. /// Host: Justin E.H.

He explicates the Stoic philosophy that the only way a man can be harmed by others is to allow his reaction to overpower him. He shows no particular religious faith in his writings, but seems to believe that some sort of logical, benevolent force organizes the universe in such a way that even "bad" occurrences happen for the good of the whole.

Where, after all, would we be without it? But what exactly is it? These days many people believe the mind simply is the brain. Descartes would have disagreed profoundly. He recommended a dualism of substance. Modern philosophers are again finding various forms of dualism attractive because the problems with physicalism are so intractable. One such problem is whether the mind, like the brain, is located in space (specifically inside the head). But does philosophy have anything sensible to say about the mind? Surely today it is scientists we should be listening to? Come and find out why this is – and always will be – false. Latest episode (2012-Apr-16 12:15 UTC): Further reading and more...

By choosing to live in a particular state are you consenting to be subject to all its laws?
