DNE Podcast

Daniel gives a brief overview of a couple of important moments in history. We discuss warfare and its impact on civilization and its positive contributions to the development of civilization as we know it, while also acknowledging the horrific reality of the situation at the time.

We talk about extending your bloodline and the aging population of today. Daniel and Eamon Hold opposing views on the future of the human race and afterward, we return back to talk about war and which incidents hold the highest casualties.

Interestingly enough this topic was not planned and the episode was released on ANZAC day. Enjoy :)

We have both been meditating for a little while now and wanted to talk about its benefits and hopefully convince some people to do the same - this leads to a conversation about if we control our thoughts or not and how this influences life.

We talk about what motivation is or is not - and in classic DNE style, we continue into the interesting area of speech, language, and communication in general as a bottleneck for our perceptions of the world.

We discuss the perception of existence through different perspectives and through the lens of different philosophies. special nod to suffering and its place in the conscious experience. What types of suffering are important to experience and why?

we contrast a lot of ideas against our understanding of philosophy and other schools of thought.

this ep is a little different and definitely more involving of question each other beliefs as opposed to discussing a topic :) we hope you enjoy !

THIS EPISODE CONTAINS SWEAR WORDS

We discuss the origins of swear words, how they came to be frowned upon and why they can be used to build trust.

Turns out they are a fundamental part of how we think and react to situtions! we talk to the significance such words and why they are so powerful.

The mic cut out halfway through so continue -----> to Pt 2

We wrap up the convo about swearing and Eamon explains the cultural history of Hip hop. This extends into a conversation about how African-American culutre has influenced much of the music we hear today.

We also ponder why we feel nostalgic for the music of our youth and how we were so oblivious to the message of the lyrics, wondering if this is the same experience all youth feels towards the music they grew up with.

We hope you enjoyed both parts to this one ! apologies for the technical difficulty !!

We talk about the importance and benefits of being healthy in the physical realm through exercise and food choices.

We talk briefly draw attention to our addictions, recognising them for what they are - food is the main talking point and why specific foods trigger impulses.

We also briefly touch on the idea of ‘body positivity’ and body shaming.

Obviously all while Including the classic DNE trail offs into other thoughts (no space talk in this one though) - we really enjoy healthy diets and exercising so this was a fun one to make :) hope you enjoy !

Its the 10th Episode! in the words of Eamon "uhuuuu".

In today's Podcast we touch on the idea of Love.

The Neuroscientific and Biological effects of love our in the brains, which deems love as a natural response to our needs of continuing the human species.

The Philosophical perspective, which believes in the idea of becaming whole.

And a brief conversation about the Religious perspective on arraged marriges.

We talk about paper straws and the state of our recycling system currently. We also discuss the purpose of pets in our lives, and how they contrast against slavery as they are animals sold and bread for our selfishness.

We also touch on if the internet serves as a detractor from our wandering curiosity and if it is instilling laziness as we no longer have to search for the answers to our questions in books and through other means (there's disagreement).

had to end this episode early, but hope you enjoy :)

We talk about why people say things they dont beleive and primal origins of the emotions that derail our conversations.

We also discuss if God exists, what are the motives for creation? and the possibility that life on earth was planted by an alien civilisation. Later in the episode we discuss different religions and their possible role in evolution.

We really loved this episode, we hope you enjoy :)

We start off talking about our recent studies into philosphy and stoicism with referance to Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Plato - breifly touching existential philosophy.

The conversation trails off to talk about the treats of AI and Tiktoks threat to Google - what is the internet ? - and how the human attention span is decreasing.
