What's good world, we're back with another solo-cast, and on this episode, I'm talking the philosophy of horror, infinite return, more existential dread with a cosmic twist, and a whole lot of Red Hot Chili Peppers. 

They say when you die your life flash before your eyes knowing that I ask why would I want to let it slide by without making the best out my time with fam and friends I stand to possibly never see again? 

Kierkegaard said why treasure something that we're born into crying and leave screaming, but I ask why would you want the final movie that you see, a culmination of your memories to be anything less than harmony? 

Stay woke...

What's good world, in this episode of the podcast I'm joined by an old homie from my graduate school days, soon-to-be-not-that-kind-of-doctor Robert Oropeza. 

Rob is also currently in the dissertation phase of a Ph.D program, and together we nerd out hard over philosophy, history, theory, and action - the title of this episode itself is influenced by one of our mutually-favorite scholars Walter Mignolo, a fitting one I believe considering the nature of our conversation. 

Anyways, this is part one of a two-part series, and I will be posting the conclusion at a later date. 

What's good world, in this episode of the podcast, we're talking artificial intelligence, robot-monkey deaths, solipsism, and how all those come together to create the greatest obstacles known to our evolution - mindless, unreflective people who think their opinion is of any relevance. 

The scary part is that at any moment we can easily become one of them - fortunately for us, we got philosophy on our side to help keep us from being lead astray. 

Stay woke...

What's good world, we're back with another attempt to conjure up and re-animate the defleshed ones with some more of that hood philosophy.

In this episdoe of the podcast, I'm talking ancestral knowledge, resisting the urge to be a part of the herd, and more ways to develop a heart and face so that we may continue our journey towards self-actualization.

Stay woke...

In this episode of the podcast, we're talking Nietzsche, homeboy!

And not that pseud Nietzsche some fake-woke YouTube schlub thinks they know about, we're talking the real deal - aint no nihilism and nazi nonsense here, my G.

I also talk jiu jitsu, overcoming our base level animal existence, and treating one's life like a work of art.

Stay woke...

If God exists, why do bad things happen to good people? And why do good things happen to bad people? Is God simultaneously responsible for love and compassion as well as death and famine?  

All this, and more in this week's Grito.

Stay woke...

For this episode of the podcast, I'm joined by my homie Mike, and we're talking Trump and deep state politics, football concussions, and how TOOL is basically the greatest band of all time.

Illuminati really do be wanting control of our mind, soul, and our body, and theses fake woke jokes out here are willing enabling them.

In this episode, I discuss the ways that information is utilized to control our understanding of reality, how the Internet was supposed to liberate us, and how at this rate, it'll simply be one of the many tools utilized to keep us enslaved.

Stay woke...

The second part of my conversation with my colleague Allaa Salama. 

We're talking ego death, what it takes to truly live a good life, and the ultimate beauty in seeking to actualize our 'true Selves' - nihilism only has meaning and purpose because we're around to give it meaning and purpose, my G. 

This is intended to be a standalone podcast, but it'll all make more coherent sense if you go back and hear our first episode together, first. 

Stay woke...

In this episode, I'm opening my sad boi heart up to the gentle indifference of the world to see if somewhere in there lies the answer to issues a few of the issues plaguing us in modern society, such as our depression, mass shootings, and the astronomically-high suicide, to name but a few.

When it's all said and done, I question if perhaps The Beatles were on to something when they sang that all we need is love?

Yes, even the mass shooter that terrorized good old Hell Paso TX, hence the title of this episode - it's on homage to the Ill Bill song where this idea was first introduced to me.

Also, there's an annoying capitalist rant to start the podcast that ends at the 19:00 minute mark if you want to skip past it, or whatever.
