You might be wondering what the king of cultural criticism might have to say about the The Good Life, and the answer is SO MUCH. Join us as we hit on just a couple of his ideas that even the biggest curmudgeons could consider on the road to the Good Life on From What We Gathered.

The Good Life Ep 9: Friedrich Nietzsche

From What We Gathered is a podcast series that explores everyday concepts through the ideas of a variety of philosophers. Inviting the audience to join along in consideration of some of life’s perennial questions, co-hosts Dani Nelson and Kylie Shahar weigh in on these ideas from their different backgrounds. While Dani’s educational background is mostly (entirely?) of the informal, self-driven sort, she shares her understanding and vault of historical context-setting knowledge with Kylie’s conversational (so, don’t worry: unscholarly!) chit-chat, which is shaped by her formal training as a professional philosopher. If you enjoy enriching your mind with a new way of thinking about ordinary and familiar ideas, or you just want to benefit from the remnants of old wisdom (peppered with contemporary scenarios) in a lively humorous spirit, join us on From What We Gathered. 

Series 1 focuses on friendship as we explore one of the most fundamentally human relationships as we discuss what ties us to people outside of our immediate family. Do we need friends for a good life? What guardrails make some friendships easy and others difficult? Can we ourselves be the optimal friend?
