Out Of Kantext

After a long, sad, restless hiatus, Soph and Steph have gathered the strength to release a pre-recorded episode. In their conversation they reflect on the existence of self and God and how humanity is basically a world filled with NPCs, as seen by Descartes in Meditations on First Philosophy. The link mentioned at the end of the episode can be found in our instagram bio @outofkantext_

Soph and Steph continue to discuss Plato’s The Symposium, focusing on a particularly anatomical speech. You will cringe through this entire episode as they pronounce Aristophanes' name wrong, the only name they had to get right. But listen anyway, as they delve into the myth of human love, connection, and multiple limbs. (eulogy music by InspectorJ, sponsor music by Stonefree)

In the midst of a pandemic, Soph and Steph discuss the very light subject of Schrödinger’s Cat. Join them on their journey of self delusion, as they come to understand quantum physics in mere minutes. But don't worry, it's not ALL science talky talky, somehow, they tie in philosophical concepts like free will and health class. (sponsor music by "George Street Shuffle" Kevin MacLeod)

Soph and Steph read one of history's most precious diaries, Marcus Aurelius', Meditations. This episode is wet with tension, conspiracy, and doughy moments. eulogy music by InspectorJ, sponsor music by Stonefree

Soph and Steph discuss a whopping two speeches from Plato’s, The Symposium. With wine in one hand and a lyre in the other, they try to feel comfortable in their Greek robes and personal disclosures about love. eulogy music by InspectorJ, sponsor music by Stonefree
