Alex is a Navy veteran, studying in exercise science, a rock climber, and holds to the philosophical theory of absurdism. We talk about that and religion as well. In the conversation I mention Alex O'Connor (atheist), Gavin Ortlund (theist) as well as Alvin Plantinga (philosopher). This video on animal suffering mentions all 3, for anyone interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxUu4ncP-JM Alex
Something for nothingDo rewards and incentives damage our humanity?In much of our personal and professional lives, we receive rewards for good behaviour and carrying out our responsibilities. But, evidence now suggests there are risks to this approach. Studies show rewards can damage wellbeing, fostering dependence and undermining our own sense of control. And neuroscientists have shown those more prone to seeking reward have a 70% higher risk of addiction, with addictive behaviour now present in almost half of the U.S. population. So, should we move away from rewards-based systems, and instead learn to value doing the right thing simply for the sake of, well, doing the right thing?Paul Bloom is a Canadian-American psychologist, bestselling author, and celebrated speaker. Bloom has written widely on human nature, and he won the Klaus J.

Biblical thinking has gone the way of the Dodo, and now common sense has followed suit. What is left if "absurdism"—where we all stare at a naked emperor and claim he is fully dressed. In this episode, Eric and Nathan talk about the craziness of our culture and how we call evil "good" and what is wrong we call "right." But it is more than just the culture, because we do the same thing with sin in our souls.

Grandpa Bill-Nihilism-3/27/25 GB-1. Existentialism as a Response to Nihilism:Before we dive into how existentialism can help us move 'From Angst to Action,' it's important to understand its origins, As our esteemed guest, Byron Athene, will be pointing out, existentialism emerged, in part, as a response to nihilism. Nihilism, at its core, declares that 'life is meaningless because nothing matters.' This can lead to a bleak outlook, as Byron described, where 'nothing matters so why do we care? We might as well screw everybody over and to hell with the consequences!' However, Byron also suggests a more positive interpretation: 'nothing matters so why don't we make the most of this and enjoy the short time we have as much as possible?Against this backdrop, existentialism asserts that 'life has the meaning we give to it.' As Byron so eloquently puts it, 'I think that makes clear that everybody is an existentialist whether they know it or not because we're all giving life our personal meanings and responding to them. Catholics say, this is the meaning of life. Buddhists say this is the meaning of life, so...we create meaning.2. Existential Reframing:Byron will probably also introduce us to the concept of 'existential reframing,' a powerful tool for navigating life's challenges. He contrasts this with positive reframing, which seeks to find positives in negatives. Existential reframing, that he'll explain, is 'acknowledging that life is infinitely more important than anything existing within it.' So, even in a less-than-ideal situation, we can recognize that 'you're in a really lucky position to be alive to have that problem.' This shift in perspective can empower us to find solutions or make the most of our circumstances."3. Absurdism:Finally, Byron will touch on absurdism, another philosophical response to the search for meaning. Absurdism suggests that 'we strive to find meaning but doing so is an absurdly impossible task because we're never going to know.' As Byron illustrates, 'We're just metaphorical ants in an ant farm on the desk of a scientist.' This perspective acknowledges the inherent limitations of human understanding."Grandpa Bill will ask Byron, Byron, with these viewpoints in mind, how does this affect the way you treat your patients, and how you view the nature of the mind?Byron can then expand on how these philosophical viewpoints inform his practice.Questions for Byron Athene:Byron, with nihilism, existentialism, and absurdism in mind, how does that affect your work with clients in the UK?How do you help clients distinguish between the nihilistic despair and the existential freedom to create meaning?Can you provide examples of how existential reframing has helped your clients navigate difficult situations?How do you address the 'absurd' in therapy, and help clients find peace with the limitations of human understanding?How does the cultural climate of the UK influence the way people approach these philosophical concepts?In your opinion, how can individuals apply these philosophical ideas to their daily lives to enhance their well-being?How does a psychoanalytic viewpoint interact with an existential viewpoint?Nihilism, Existentialism, and Absurdism: A Conversation with Byron AtheneFrom Meaninglessness to Meaning: Existentialism in Everyday LifeExistential Reframing: Turning Challenges into OpportunitiesFinding Meaning in the Absurd: A Philosophical Approach to Well-BeingThe UK Mind: Psychoanalysis and ExistentialismGrandpa Bill and Byron Athene: The Meaning of LifeFrom Angst to Action: A Philosophical Discussion#Existentialism,#Nihilism,#Absurdism,#ExistentialReframing,#Psychoanalysis,#Psychotherapy,#MentalWellness,#MeaningOfLife,#GrandpaBill,#ByronAthene,#bhsaleskennelkelpholistichealinghour ,#@billholt8792,#UKTherapy,#Philosophy,#SelfDiscovery,#PersonalGrowth,#AnxietyToAction,

Vanessa Stockard recently visited the podcast for the 3rd time!Vanessa Stockard was born in 1975 in Sydney and spent her formative years in a small country town in the Mid North Coast of New South Wales. At 12 she returned to Sydney as a boarder at Abbotsleigh. After graduating from the College of Fine Arts (COFA) Sydney in 1998 with a BFA, Stockard launched head first into the avant-garde art scene in the bohemian village of Glebe.Stockard is one of the most dangerous artists on the Australian, and by extension, international scene. Her ethereal works of art are a window into the soul of a talented and complex artist, one whose legacy is bound to resonate well past her generation. The existential nature of her painting viscerally questions our concepts of social relationships and reality.Twenty years of introspection and experimentation, ranging over a number of media, have forged Vanessa's style and vulcanised her craft, enabling her to reveal complex misdemeanours, while simultaneously demanding the viewer's self-reflection. She deals with isolation and sadness with intimate care and attention.Vanessa is unhindered by failure, always continuing the discovery of things previously unseen, revealing work that is fresh, unlaboured and penetrating. The deceptive everyday nature of her subject matter belies hidden depths of relationship, feeling and emotion. One could describe her process as absence of thought, a freedom of construct, not unlike the stream of consciousness associated with authors such as Hemmingway and Thomas Wolfe.If light and shade were students, she would be their master. This skill, combined with a naturally deft hand and a determined use of perspective, imbue her subjects with gravitas. The artist refers to set design elements that often alter and morph as her piece progresses. She has said she feels grounded from her ability to draw from the benign surrounds of familiar life, infusing these images with a meaning that yields a meditative satisfaction.Stockard's oeuvre features many pieces developed without any direct visual reference but rather from memory, often incorporating domestic pets such as cats and dogs. Juxtaposing the anthropomorphic nature these animals are given by our society, she infuses the personification of virtue and vice into the everyday canine and feline status quo of our pets. Cats with their fluffy comical exteriors glint with an instinctive urge to kill and cruelly torment their prey, dogs with their providence of happiness, loyalty and friendship are flung back onto Churchill's menacing metaphor for depression.The Kafkaesque mindset behind such works is reminiscent of the existentialist authors like Sartre and Camus. Absurdism appears with cake imagery and its relation to a childlike nostalgia for happiness which may never be real, but rather imaginary, unattainable and unachievable. It's been said “pain is inexhaustible, it's only people who get exhausted…”One can never “have it all”, to be both the artist and patron. To intrinsically understand those things around us that others overlook is what we want from our artists, our creatives. They give voice to the profound mystery of the world around us, surrounded as we are with consumerism, pointless greed, deceit and dissatisfaction. There's no pretension here in these paintings, just spontaneous insight and beauty. Some art is said to speak volumes, but these works are more like innocent and delicate poems, whispering untold truths with an economy of words.Something Rather Than Nothing Podcast

Co-directors Pasqual Gutierrez & Ben Mullinkosson blur the lines between fiction and non-fiction with their latest film “Serious People”, which just had its World Premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.Ben discusses his filmmaking journey from Chicago to Shanghai and Pasqual shares the inspiration behind their film, which stemmed from a vivid dream he had, as well as real life - and also from the past works of Roy Andersson (“A Pigeon Sat on a Branch”) and Ruben Östlund (“Triangle of Sadness”). The discussion delves into the challenges of blending fiction and nonfiction, the importance of casting the right talent, and the creative process of improvisation. They reflect on the personal relationships that influenced the film and the unique challenges of co-directing with a partner. They also dive into the art of long takes, the concept of auto-fiction, and the ethical considerations in documentary filmmaking. They speak about the collaborative spirit that drove the project forward, culminating in their acceptance into Sundance.What Movies Are You Watching?Like, subscribe and follow us on our socials @pastpresentfeature

Breht dies and has a near-death experience, Dave struggles with derealization (and busting), then the boys talk politics and reflect on the election. After that, they discuss types of people they'd like to purge the planet of and different types of human intelligence, then Breht's son joins the show to reveal the TRUE Breht, and it ain't pretty... After that, the boys stare death in the face and are wiped off the face of the planet.
In this episode we discuss the relation between Nihilism and Absurdism. It's not surprising that Absurdism is so popular in Postmodernity. However, I haven't found anyone on the information superhighway - including Wikipedia - who has correctly characterized Absurdism yet. By the end of this episode we'll see that Absurdism is performative. That is to say, Absurdism is performative Nihilism. Nihilism believes it gets reality right. Absurdism believes there is no such thing as "getting reality right." Performative Absurdism doesn't relate to reality with a meaning-making that seeks to be reality-based. In this episode, some topics addressed are: Sisyphus, Capitalism & Schizophrenia, Humanism, Trans-Humanism, and Post-Humanism, Solipsism, the Liar Paradox, Postmodernity, Nihilism, and Absurdism. .

In honor of the 420 episode, I decided to smoke a nice strong joint for this one while recording. And the topic pairs perfectly with weed: a philosophical discussion on the nature of life. Why are we here and what is the point of life? We'll summarize Friedrich Nietzsche's thoughts on nihilism, Albert Camus's musings on absurdism, and Jean-Paul Sartre's views on existentialism. Is there any real point to our lives? Does that matter? If there's no higher power watching over us or judging us, why even bother to try and be decent people? Why care at all about our fates? Getting deep today! And very, very high. Hail Nimrod!

Absurdism claims that existence, as a whole, is absurd and although objective meaning does not exist, it doesn't mean we can't find + create our own. We're allowed to change our minds + reflect at any time, because the only meaning that matters, is the meaning we decide matters. “The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion”. — Albert CamusRESOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absurdism#:~:text=Absurdism%20is%20the%20philosophical%20theory,a%20conflict%20with%20the%20world.DONATE:www.pcrf.netGet Involved:Operation Olive Branch: Spreadsheets + LinksGET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

In 1979, Andrei Tarkovsky released Stalker after years of a seemingly cursed production process. A production that would lead to his untimely death years later. Fast forward over 1,000 years... it's the year 3000 and two best friends, Cameron Linly Robinson and Kemari Bryant, are here to dissect this classic sci-fi film. It's about to get existential.

On the fifty-ninth episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max return from an extended alien abduction to discuss Wes Anderson's latest feature, Asteroid City. One of Max's favorites, he delves into why the content and substance of the film works so well, and Tristen uncovers why it might not be one of his better pieces. The ensemble cast receives praise and there are lots of laughs to go around, with the episode also including a sneak peek into what Tristen and Max have been able to see in the weeks absent on the alien ship.

"...the reader's mind is filling in the blanks in between those panels and as a lip reader, that's what I do. I fill in the blanks. I'm trying to piece together what that person says. So, comics really make sense to me.” - Cece BellI first came to know Cece Bell through her groundbreaking semi-autobiographical graphic memoir novel, “El Deafo.” It was SO good that I had to read more by her. That's when I found out, through reading aloud with our (then younger) kids, that Cece's work is hilarious. Her zany, expressive storytelling combined with her vibrant illustrations create her unique style which she dubs, “absurdism for children.” During our conversation, Cece explains that it is in fact a style born out of misunderstandings, of her trying to make sense of the world around her while navigating it with deafness. While Cece is best known for "El Deafo," which received a Newbery honor, most of her books are for a slightly younger set. These include her laugh-out-loud funny "Chick and Brain" series, and her earlier Sock Monkey trilogy. Cece's journey to pursuing a career as an artist was first dependent on her discovering confidence in her abilities, and also in her disability. Something that she didn't fully realize until she wrote “El Deafo.” In this episode, Cece shares insights into her creative process, revealing how her experiences navigating the world with deafness have shaped her storytelling and sense of humor (and draws the connection between her deafness and her love for puns). She also tells us about the gory job that convinced her to pursue a career as an artist. For any budding comic creators, she also reveals the only book you need to read before your write your first graphic novel.***Connect with Jordan and The Reading Culture @thereadingculturepod and subscribe to our newsletter at thereadingculturepod.com/newsletter. ***For her reading challenge, Sibling Stories, Cece has curated a list of books that highlight the special relationships between siblings, something that has always fascinated her. In case you wondered, Cece has two older siblings.

Chris and Victoria find themselves in the mall they worked in as teenagers, stuck in the same snowed-in day in 1998 that never ends. The Evergreen Glen Mall, or as it's known on the other side, it's the EverMall!Their old friends are back, as are stores they thought long gone. Mall information is vague and cryptic. Their coworkers seem content to stay there forever. Their case manager is too busy swiping right on straight guys who manage to not have a dead fish in their profile. And there's something ominous and creepy about that Things Recalled store. No one's ever in there, but no one ever was when it was open and alive either. There has to be more to life… or whatever… than this, right?

Well, join us on this provocative ride into the realm of absurd filmmaking, where we unravel the various elements that come together to create the 'weird' and 'unusual'. We dissect the philosophy of absurdism and how the juxtaposition of reason and incongruity can lead to profound narratives. This episode is guaranteed to challenge your perspective on what constitutes 'normal' and 'eccentric'.Next up, we shine the spotlight on the legendary Peter Jackson and his DIY journey in creating the cult classic, 'Bad Taste'. Discover how Jackson's sheer determination and innovation (think creating masks in his mom's kitchen) won over the New Zealand Film Commission, leading to the completion of this iconic film. But, the story doesn't end there. We delve into the controversy surrounding the banning of the film in Queensland, Australia and how all these elements amalgamated to inspire Jackson's later works.Finally, we take a fun detour into the world of Star Wars parody shows and the allure of an all-female cast. We even entertain the thought of a 'sexy Ghostbusters'. Yes, you heard that right! We wrap things up with a thrilling preview of our upcoming review of the anime movie 'Memories'.
