*New Episode Every Week*

In this new, revolutionary (stolen from Very Bad Wizards), format, we begin our episode by discussing the famous Bystander Effect. We first summarize it, and then suggest how to bypass it to achieve a more moral and socially profitable outcome.

In the main segment, we discuss Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, labeled "the only practical philosophy" by stoic fanatics. Stoicism has, of course, been the main philosophical interest of the internet for quite some time, and we identify a few ways to integrate it to your life to make it better and attain the highly desirable "stoic" nature.

*New Episode Every Week*

Religion or philosophy: a debate that had been going on for hundreds of years. But, is it even a debate? As a priest once told me, all religions and philosophies are trails to the same mountain top. Our conclusions in this episode and the next seem to reflect this view, but a few questions are still left unanswered. Can Phil prevail in his talk with two philosophers? Find out in this last episode of a two-part series.

Special thanks to our returning guest, Phil.

What is authenticity? How do you reach it? We delve into Nietzsche, ancient Buddhism and the sayings of the great Alan Watts. In this episode on authenticity, we do some conceptual analysis and lay the groundwork for some other fundamental questions yet to come. On our way towards a conclusion, we even delve into some social criticism. Join us for this week's episode and let us hear your thoughts.

*New Episode Every Week*

What is respect? Despite a large portion of the podcast being dedicated to a tangent, we arrive at a more concrete view of respect. Does it correlate with common decency? Is respect always earned? Can you not like someone yet respect them? All of these questions are answered in this episode, with a surprising bonus about the subjectivity of morality.

*New Episode Every Week*

How is intelligence different from knowledge? Does a lack of geographical or historical knowledge make you less intelligent? Does being good at school make you intelligent? All of these questions, and more, are answered throughout the episode. With a less planned structure, we had the chance to dive into personal experiences and thought experiments a little bit more. Join us for this week's discussion.

What is the meaning of life? In this highly anticipated episode, we attempt to break down popular views on the matter. From utilitarianism to Christianity and Buddhism, we skim over the historical perspective and find their flaws in the goal of coming up with our own theory. Were we successful in finding the truth about the universe? Listen to find out.

What makes a person interesting? You certainly won't find out in this episode. From going off-subject to joking around (this episode was edited down from 1h40), it seemed as though this wasn't the day to come to philosophical conclusions. This did not mean we could not have fun though, and throughout the fun some of the subjects of what it takes to be interesting were brought up. Due to the new studio setup, it was difficult to include Alex in the conversation casually due to the fact that we had to share 1 microphone. This will be dealt with in the future.

Thank you to our special guest DC.

This week, we analyze philosophy's most perplexing conundrums. Historical paradoxes that philosophers have not figured out for hundreds of years, all solved in one podcast! Kind of... Also our first video podcast. From Zeno's paradox to self-driving car AI programs, join us this week to demystify philosophy.

We forgot to give a rating during the podcast, but we agreed on 8 afterwards.

*New Episode Every Week*

What is the point of philosophy? What are we trying to accomplish with our podcast? When should we say "sorry"? A long overdue episode delving into the problems with the historical approach to philosophy, what we think it should be and what our strategy will be to accomplish it. We are hoping this will introduce some structure to our sometimes chaotic episodes and make our conversations go further than usual by helping us identify disagreements faster. With the time that is left over, we discuss a minor topic: apologizing. We set the boundaries for apologies with the help of our newfound methodology.
