While producing the podcast and creating bizarre philosophy-themed YouTube videos over the past months, Dave has also been working on three books in progress–“Animality and Finitude,” “On the Kanthropocene,” and “A Bipolar Manifesto.”

Parts of each book have been released on a rolling basis on the Deadbeat Philosophy homepage (deadbeatphilosophy.substack.com), and episodes 20, 21, and 22 of the podcast will feature readings of available sections of each.

In this episode, Dave reads the first six parts of “On the Kanthropocene”:

1. Jack and the Beanstalk of Reason

2. With All Due Respect to Cephalopods

3. The Kanthropocene Is

4. The “Global Environmental Crisis”

5. The Kanthropocene and Us

6. Infanticidal Hominins in the Space of Reasons
