  • Beyond Good and Evil | A Brief Introduction to Nietzsche

    Send us Fan Mail

    Getting into Nietzsche and don’t know where to start? 
    In this video, we discuss Nietzsche’s masterpiece Beyond Good and Evil, talking about its context, why I recommend it so much and also how to get the most from reading this work.
    Nietzsche is a profound thinker, and it is a great joy tackling his ideas and aphorisms.

  • Sex and Sensibility | A Response to Forrest Valkai

    Send us Fan Mail

    Sex and Gender is a very contentious and interesting topic. 
    In this video, I respond, as requested, to a video made by the YouTuber Forrest Valkai. There, he discusses a variety of different ideas and scientific research about sex differentiation, gender and other interesting ideas. 
    As someone who has discussed and researched this topic in the past (though not to the depth of Forrest) I felt that this was perhaps the best one of his videos to respond to and might be the most fruitful theme for discussion.
    Therefore, I decided to make this video in response to his overall arguments, share my thoughts and ideas about the data, the interpretation and other interesting features of his arguments.
    I hope you enjoy the video.

  • Why Is Nietzsche so Popular?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Nietzsche is a weird one, he's extremely controversial but he is loved by society.
    How did this misogynist become one of the most loved thinkers of our time. Today, we discuss different forms of misinterpreting Nietzsche and also the possible reasons for why they love Nietzsche so much that they may overlook all of his flaws.
    I hope you enjoy this video and if you do, make sure to like and subscribe.

  • Chaos to Order to Existential Solution | Genesis 1-2 | Bible Series

    Send us Fan Mail

    What can we learn from the first two chapters of Genesis? A lot actually.
    In this video, we discuss a plethora of different topics from psychological to philosophical to scientifical. Using these approaches, I aim to give you a comprehensive guide to understanding more about the first part of the Bible, the creation. This is a very profound and insightful text and is often abused by critiques of the New Atheists. Rather than responding to these pointless arguments, I felt that it is better for us to look at these texts in a positive light to see what we can learn from them.
    I hope you find these videos helpful and for more videos on this Biblical series, make sure to stay tuned on this channel.

  • The Innocent Scapegoat and Ideology

    Send us Fan Mail

    What are the solutions to ideology?
    In this discussion, we turn to the nature of the scapegoat and it's anthropological and psychological implications towards ideology. How can the innocent scapegoat of Girard's theory help our understanding of ideology and how can it further our defence against the mindless ideologues of the 20th century?
