“I really think that the purpose is to make space for the unknown, uncertainty, and for our kind of humility in the face of the complexity of our belonging to the physical world. So it's our animality, our physicality, all of that is so complicated and difficult to grapple with. The unknown is uncontrollable and is a huge abyss, as we know, for everybody. I do think that I'm trying to pivot here a little bit towards meeting the patient's attempts to grapple with that unknown.” Episode description:  We begin by examining the assumptions of causality that we humans commonly invoke when faced with physical ailments. Childhood imaginings come forward during such times, and, despite being distressing, they offer comfort in the face of frightening uncertainty. Similarly, analytic theorizing has occasionally suggested certainties in the face of the unknown. This may limit the analytic space, thereby making vulnerability, fears, and new awarenesses less accessible. Sharone presents clinical material from patients with testicular cancer and lymphoma, where their psychogenic theories of etiology interfered with their medical care. We consider the distinction between patients with somatic symptoms and psychosomatic patients. We question the ability of the analytic method to uncover the origins of medical illnesses while emphasizing the importance of recognizing the "particular possibilities of our method."   Our Guest: Sharone Bergner Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst in full time private practice of psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and clinical supervision in New York City. She is a member and former faculty at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research and is Adjunct Assistant Clinical Professor and a clinical supervisor at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, in the Contemporary Freudian track, where she teaches a course called The Body in Analytic Reverie. She is a member of the International Psychoanalytic Association and the editorial board of The Psychoanalytic Quarterly. She has a special interest in the body/mind in relation to maternal reverie in early development, vitality, embodiment, and medical issues, having worked early in her career in a cancer hospital, with the internal medicine, OBGYN, and dermatology clinics of a large urban teaching hospital, with political refugees and with parent-child pairs.    Recommended Readings: 1.

It's an influential and powerful idea in its own right, but it also generates clarifying insights into our present cultural and political moment. To get there, the three first do some necessary ground-clearing on reading Kristeva's notoriously complex style, the broader status of language in French poststructuralist thought, and the etymology and connotations of “abjection” and the “abject” themselves. As they discuss, abjection does more than describe an object or a state of being – it also describes a set of experiences, a fundamentally embodied suite of affects, and, above all, an ongoing set of processes that simultaneously consolidate and threaten our most taken-for-granted ideas about subjectivity, the body, other people, and political life. Abby, Patrick, and Dan proceed through Kristeva's many earthy examples, from food waste to vomit to excrement to corpses, and to the ideologies she perceives as relying on logics of abjection and making-abject, from hatred of mothers to antisemitism and beyond. Turning to explicitly contemporary political topics, they draw on the work of key interpreters of Kristeva to explain how the ongoing production of abject populations is vital to both real and figurative operations of boundary maintenance, oppression, and exploitation, and to core processes of state formation and policing of the public sphere. From trans bathroom panics to misogyny to abortion to immigration to Alligator Alcatraz and beyond, the three show how the work of abjection runs through a panoply of reactionary programs; how the continual creation of abjected, “revolting” populations and the conjuring of feelings of revulsion against them works to subvert revolutionary possibilities; and how abject groups have sought to both name and resist their oppression and to reclaim and redeploy its terms.For the complete reading list for this episode, visit our Patreon: patreon.com/OrdinaryUnhappinessHave you noticed that Freud is back?

Comedian and quizmaster Richard McKenzie returns to vie with Liz and Ben for control of the most odorous city on the Disc, as they discuss Martin Wallace's 2011 board game Discworld: Ankh-Morpork. The Patrician has gone missing! This leaves a huge power vacuum in Ankh-Morpork, and several of the most powerful figures in the city immediately start jostling for control. Lords, criminals and vampires position their minions in every district, each on their own path to power - and getting in each others' way. Ankh-Morpork can only remain leaderless for so long - and there will be only one winner... The first of the later Discworld board games, and generally considered by fans the best, Discworld: Ankh-Morpork (or just Ankh-Morpork) is a medium-to-light complexity game designed by Martin Wallace and published by Treefrog Games. Players take turns to play cards, following symbols and written instructions to alter the state of a map of Ankh-Morpork. Each card represents a character or location from the city, wonderfully illustrated by Peter Dennis. If the cards run out, then points are added up - but more likely, one of the players will achieve the secret objective of their “personality”, a hidden role which gives them one of five different victory conditions. Unfortunately the game was only available for five years before Treefrog lost the Discworld license, but it still holds pride of place in many fan collections - and goes for a pretty penny in the secondhand market. Especially the collector's editions! Have you had a chance to play Discworld: Ankh-Morpork? Does it capture the feel of the Discworld, or the city of Ankh-Morpork? Do you have a favourite card? What's missing from the books that you'd love to see added in? And now we've covered all the Discworld board games, do you have a favourite? Or an idea for a new game? Play your cards right by joining our online conversation, using the hashtag #Pratchat87. Guest Richard McKenzie (he/him) has been a comedian in the Melbourne scene for around twenty-five years. As well as writing and performing many solo storytelling shows, he's supported big names like Adam Hills and Ross Noble, written and performed sketches and plays with WATSON and the Anarchist Guild Social Committee, and partnered with Ben for nerd comedy, including the Dungeons & Dragons-themed improvised show Dungeon Crawl. As of July 2025 you'll find Richard hosting trivia at The College Lawn in Prahran on Wednesday evenings from 7 PM, and at The Cornish Arms in Brunswick on Thursday evenings (7 PM, general knowledge) and Sunday afternoons (2 PM, pop culture).

Todd breaks down major misconceptions about Freud's ideas, from the real meaning behind "penis envy" and hysteria to why the phallus represents fraudulent symbolic power rather than actual authority. We dive deep into the crucial distinction between drive and desire, how fantasy structures our reality (and why realizing our fantasies would be the worst thing that could happen), and why repression actually manifests on the surface rather than buried deep within. We also discuss how these insights help us understand everything from capitalism's engine of perpetual dissatisfaction to why shows like Mad Men and The Sopranos perfectly illustrate psychoanalytic concepts.In The Backroom on Patreon, Todd and I discuss Hegel's most misunderstood yet popular concept—dialectics—and how it connects to psychoanalytic thinking.

In this episode, I am sharing the early part of my journey that started with dealing with teen substance abuse, and trying to find the counselling and support that led me to group programs, counsellors, psychologists, and programs, turning over rocks to try to find solutions. In the process, I found the difference between traditional psychology and NLP, recognizing that I am not diagnosing or treating anything. I am sharing my experience.  I eventually discovered a crisis counsellor program that offered me practical guidance during moments of crisis, which was a game-changer for me. This experience led me to question traditional counselling methods, particularly the focus on past trauma, as exemplified by Freud's approach. Instead, I found solace and empowerment in Adler's future-focused perspective, which aligns closely with NLP. NLP is based on shifting our identity and focusing on the future rather than reliving and giving energy to our past traumas, easily allowing that to become our identity.

Sunday, 6 July 2025   For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.' Matthew 11:18   “For, he came, John, neither eating, neither drinking, and they say he has a demon!” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus gave an example of what “this generation” is like, saying, “We piped to you and not you danced. We bewailed to you and not you breast-beat.” He continues now with, “For, he came, John, neither eating, neither drinking.”   The meaning here is more than just his limited diet, which is recorded in Matthew 3:4 –   “And he, John, had his apparel from camel's hair, and a leathery girdle around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.”   The thought of eating and drinking extends to social life, where eating and drinking are a part of the natural course of human interaction. In other words, John's life was that of a prophet preparing the way for the Lord. He did this in the wilderness, living a life of austerity and isolation.   In this state, someone may have come and said, “I'd like to talk to you about your message, come and join us at our meal tonight.” This is something John would have likely refused, maybe offering them a bowl of dried locusts instead and saying, “Join me here for a meal. This is where I belong.”   John limited his diet and everything that goes along with eating. Parties, feasts, dinner invitations, etc., would all have been shunned by him. Therefore, because of this obscure and difficult to understand lifestyle, Jesus next says, “and they say he has a demon!”   This is what it says about the demoniacs in Chapter 8 –   “And He, having come into the beyond, into the country of the Gergesenes, two ‘being demon possessed,' they met Him, coming out from the tombs – exceedingly dangerous – so too, not anyone capacitate to pass through that way.” Matthew 8:28   They lived in an area shunned by others, cut off from the normal ways of life. Because John was somewhat like this, instead of recognizing him as a prophet and grasping the importance of his ministry, they accused him of having a demon.   Life application: One of the traits that is often seen in people who are exceptional in their field is eccentricity, even to the point of being thought to suffer from mental instability. People with great intellects who have made some of the most profound discoveries in their occupations have been considered unconventional, and their lives troubled.   Van Gogh, da Vinci, Nietzsche, Hemingway, Tesla, Mozart, Bonaparte, Byron, Freud, Einstein, and so many others were, at times, close to being off their rocker. Van Gogh cut off his own ear, something not normally thought of as a sign of sharp mental acuity.   Fortunately for them, their skills in their professions were recognized and they were appreciated, despite their often-bizarre behavior. If you come across someone who seems a tad eccentric or doesn't fit into the traditional paradigm that society has set, don't underestimate him or dismiss him outright. It may be that his focus is so poignantly directed that the normal rules for social behavior don't interest him.   At the same time, he may be as crazy as a loon, so don't just assume that everyone who is odd is a genius.   Lord God, may our judgments about those we encounter always be carefully considered. First and foremost, may we look at each person as an individual who needs Jesus. If we remember this, surely we will see them in a different way than if we judge by mere appearances. Help us to look for Your image in those we encounter. Amen.

Abby and Patrick sit down with writer Hilary Plum to discuss her remarkable new book, State Champ. A novel at which the politics of abortion stand at the center, but far from a didactically “political novel,” State Champ gives the three an opportunity to explore a suite of deeply psychoanalytic themes and topics: from the gap between our first-person experiences of our bodies to the claims and restrictions made by others on our bodily autonomy; from the purposes of protest to our motivations for undertaking them; from discourses about “regret” versus certainty and judgement; from the knowledge we anticipate to come from experiences versus things we know already versus things that others think they better; and from sex to eating disorders to humor to running and more. The three also reflect on writing and reading novels in 2025, genre, audiences, and on what communication and psychic change we hope fiction can achieve. Hilary Plum, State Champ: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/state-champ-9781639735433/Hilary's website: http://www.hilaryplum.com/Index for Continuance, a podcast about small press publishing, politics, and practice, hosted by Hilary Plum and Zach Peckham: https://www.csupoetrycenter.com/index-for-continuance-podcastSusan Bordo, “The Body and the Reproduction of Femininity”Have you noticed that Freud is back?

C'est dans la nuit du 15 au 16 juillet 1893 que meurt celui qui, inlassablement, des années durant, aura tenté de comprendre les troubles du comportement de certains de ses semblables : Jean-Martin Charcot. Grand médecin de l'hôpital de la Salpêtrière, à Paris, il occupera, en 1882, la première chaire de neurologie et explorera les continents, alors mal connus, de l'hystérie et de l'hypnose. Freud, qui fut son élève, ne cachera pas l'influence qu'eut le maître sur son travail. Charcot demeure également un lien entre la science et l'art. Ses dessins, d'une grande habilité et d'une profonde sensibilité, révèlent une connaissance profonde de l'humain, un diagnostic précis des anomalies anatomiques. Ils nous disent le lien étroit qui unit l'image du corps et la psychiatrie. La curiosité du savant, son regard aigu sur ses contemporains et son talent artistiques auront permis une avancée spectaculaire de la science.

In this episode, psychoanalyst Graeme Daniels talks about masochism, surrender and submission, weaving in theories of Freud, Klein, and Winnicott with reflections upon addiction, BDSM, repetition compulsion, even rape--all relating to a paper by Emmanuel Ghent from the nineties, plus the fifty year anniversary of a famous shark film

If you want to understand the intellectual fault lines of the 20th century, you don't need to go to a fancy college. You can just sit down with some old movies. We don't touch on horror movies often on Geeky Stoics, in fact, this is a first. I just finished KINGDOM OF CAIN, a fascinating book about how horror and murder point toward evidence of God. It's a fresh approach to Christian apologetics and on brand for Klavan, a prolific crime and mystery novelist. The book traces the line between real world murders that inspired art (film and stage plays) which inspire more real world violence, which inspire more art. Man destroys, man creates, round and round we go. At issue for most of the book is how the Ed Gein murders spurred on Alfred Hitchcock's PSYCHO (1960), which later warranted a response in the form of HALLOWEEN (1978). What Klavan leaves out is a movie near and dear to me, which builds on both of these films, SCREAM (1996). A question is posed by these works of art based on real world violence: Is evil a psychiatric malfunction or a metaphysical reality? Are murderers patients, or vessels……In the video above, you'll get some answers to that question and see how philosophy and psychology clash when it comes to the question of evil and violence. “Darwin told us where we came from. Marx told us where we're going. Freud told us who we are.” - Andrew Klavan This is a public episode.

In 1897, Gustav Klimt led a group of radical artists to break free from the cultural establishment of Vienna and found a movement that became known as the Vienna Secession. In the vibrant atmosphere of coffee houses, Freudian psychoanalysis and the music of Wagner and Mahler, the Secession sought to bring together fine art and music with applied arts such as architecture and design. The movement was characterized by Klimt's stylised paintings, richly decorated with gold leaf, and the art nouveau buildings that began to appear in the city, most notably the Secession Building, which housed influential exhibitions of avant-garde art and was a prototype of the modern art gallery. The Secessionists themselves were pioneers in their philosophy and way of life, aiming to immerse audiences in unified artistic experiences that brought together visual arts, design, and architecture. With:Mark Berry, Professor of Music and Intellectual History at Royal Holloway, University of LondonLeslie Topp, Professor Emerita in History of Architecture at Birkbeck, University of LondonAndDiane Silverthorne, art historian and 'Vienna 1900' scholarProducer: Eliane GlaserReading list:Mark Berry, Arnold Schoenberg: Critical Lives (Reaktion Books, 2018)Gemma Blackshaw, Facing the Modern: The Portrait in Vienna 1900 (National Gallery Company, 2013)Elizabeth Clegg, Art, Design and Architecture in Central Europe, 1890-1920 (Yale University Press, 2006)Richard Cockett, Vienna: How the City of Ideas Created the Modern World (Yale University Press, 2023)Stephen Downes, Gustav Mahler (Reaktion Books, 2025)Peter Gay, Freud, Jews, and Other Germans: Masters and Victims in Modernist Culture (Oxford University Press, 1979)Tag Gronberg, Vienna: City of Modernity, 1890-1914 (Peter Lang, 2007)Allan S.

And since human memory is so faulty, why do we take eyewitness testimony in legal contexts so seriously? How different are people's experiences of the world? What are the various failure modes in social science research? How much progress have the social sciences made implementing reforms and applying more rigorous standards? Why does peer review seem so susceptible to importance hacking? When is observation more important than interpretation, and vice versa? Do the top journals contain the least replicable papers? What value do Freud's ideas still provide today? How useful are neo-Freudian therapeutic methods? Should social scientists run studies on LLMs?

Freud dijo que nacemos con 2 tipos de pulsiones o instintos vitales, la pulsión de vida o la libido y la pulsión de muerte o el thanatos. La pulsión de vida está directamente ligada con la sexualidad. Con el deseo, con la conservación por la vida y con el querer compartir con el otro la satisfacción de las necesidades sexuales, todo esto ligado con el placer. Sin embargo, con el paso de los años, este deseo puede tener alteraciones. El deseo sexual es influido por múltiples factores en la vida de las personas. La pérdida del deseo se manifiesta por diferentes motivos. Algunos de ellos pueden ser: Físicos, derivados de alguna enfermedad. Otras veces por el paso de los años, la edad. Otros motivos pueden ser: enfermedades de tipo emocional como la depresión, a sobrecarga de estrés, la angustia, las decepciones amorosas o el miedo al fracaso. En algunas ocasiones, la pérdida del deseo sexual está fundada en el hecho de que la persona se ha sentido decepcionada por su pareja. O que ha encontrado otro tipo de motivaciones que pesan más que el deseo hacia su partenaire, como podrían ser el trabajo, un reto importante en su vida, alguna preocupación por la salud de algún familiar o la pérdida del trabajo o de una propiedad importante.

What is Civilization? How did it develop and what are its goals? In his book “Civilization and Its Discontents,” Sigmund Freud looks at these questions from a psychoanalytic perspective. The conclusions he draws are as surprising and sometimes outrageous as they are insightful.  This is part two in a series on Sigmund Freud's “Civilization and Its Discontents.” It takes a look at Freud's psychoanalytic understanding of how civilization began, how it developed over time, what the characteristics of civilization are, why it makes us unhappy, and why we live in a paradox. The conclusion of this series will be coming in a few weeks.  -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

With special guest Longinus, the boys review a shandy from Founders, then continue their "shortcut to the classics" series with a review of Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" -- a haunting 1886 novella that ripped the mask off Victorian respectability and exposed the brutal split within human nature.Set in the same foggy, gaslit London as Sherlock Holmes, this story of duality, repression, and moral despair hit like a thunderclap on both sides of the Atlantic. But it's more than just a gothic thriller — it's a mirror held up to human nature and society itself.We explore:* The origins of the story and why Stevenson rewrote it from scratch after his wife's critique* The moral message: man is not one but two — and there may be no salvation for either* The symbolism of Jekyll's divided house, the hidden back door, and the cultured facade over inner rot* The novella's critique of Victorian England, where public virtue masks private vice* Interpretive lenses: from Romans 7 and Christian theology to Jung's shadow, Freud's psychoanalysis, and even Star Trek* Why Hyde isn't some external monster, but a part of you — and why that makes the story more disturbing* The tragedy of Jekyll: not that he loses control, but that he wants toWe also ask whether Stevenson's bleak vision of human nature holds up — and contrast it with the biblical vision of a unified, redeemable self.If you've ever wrestled with the dark side of human nature — or just want to understand why this little book still packs a punch — this episode is for you.

Dans ce nouvel épisode, je suis tellement heureuse de recevoir Charles Pépin. Philosophe et romancier reconnu pour sa capacité à rendre accessibles les idées les plus complexes avec une simplicité déconcertante, il a accepté d'explorer avec nous le voyage sous un angle philosophique profond et résolument humain.Pourquoi ressentons-nous ce besoin irrépressible de partir à la découverte d'autres horizons ?Le voyage est-il égoïste ou un remède aux replis identitaires ?Comment les voyages forment-ils la jeunesse ?Avec une sincérité désarmante, tout en citant Freud et Voltaire il partage ses expériences personnelles, des marchés colorés de l'Inde aux paysages glacés d'Islande, en révélant comment ces périples l'ont transformé. Il nous explique pourquoi le "vrai voyage" est celui qui ne se déroule pas comme prévu et comment être "confortable dans l'inconfort" peut nous révéler à nous-mêmes.De la rencontre avec l'altérité aux souvenirs qui nous façonnent, en passant par l'importance des voyages pour nos enfants, cette conversation inspirante vous donnera envie de faire vos valises... ou peut-être de redécouvrir votre quotidien avec un regard neuf.Bonne écoute !Retrouvez-nous sur @beauvoyage !**************************************Production : Sakti ProductionsMusique : Chase The Mississipi, Michael ShynesVous êtes une marque et vous souhaitez collaborer avec Beau Voyage ?

Les "montres molles", devenues l'un des symboles les plus reconnaissables de Salvador Dalí, apparaissent pour la première fois dans son tableau "La Persistance de la mémoire" (1931). Ce chef-d'œuvre du surréalisme montre des montres à gousset qui semblent fondre, suspendues aux branches d'un arbre, à un rebord de table ou encore sur une forme organique rappelant un visage flasque. Cette image, à la fois étrange et fascinante, soulève une question : que représentent ces montres molles ?Pour Dalí, ces montres déformées sont une métaphore du temps subjectif. Inspiré par les travaux d'Albert Einstein sur la relativité, l'artiste voulait montrer que le temps n'est pas rigide, mécanique et universel, comme le suggèrent les horloges classiques, mais qu'il peut être perçu de manière différente selon les émotions, les situations ou les états mentaux. Dans les rêves, par exemple, le temps peut s'étirer ou se contracter : une seconde peut sembler durer une éternité, ou au contraire filer en un éclair. Dalí, profondément influencé par la psychanalyse et les rêves (notamment ceux analysés par Freud), cherchait à peindre ce temps psychologique, fluide et insaisissable.Selon une anecdote souvent rapportée, l'idée lui serait venue en observant un camembert fondu, laissé trop longtemps au soleil. Cette vision d'un objet habituellement solide devenu flasque aurait déclenché l'association mentale avec les montres, symboles de la régularité du temps. En les représentant molles, il les désacralise : le temps, ce repère si solide de nos vies, devient incertain, presque ridicule.Ces montres sont aussi une critique de la modernité industrielle, où la mesure du temps est devenue tyrannique : horaires, cadences, productivité. Dalí, en bon surréaliste, rejette cette rationalisation du monde et cherche au contraire à reconnecter l'art avec l'inconscient, le rêve, et l'irrationnel.Enfin, on peut voir dans ces montres un reflet des angoisses existentielles de Dalí. Le temps qui fond, c'est aussi le temps qui s'échappe, qui entraîne inévitablement vers la mort. Dans plusieurs tableaux ultérieurs, il reprendra ces montres molles, parfois associées à des paysages désertiques ou des objets en décomposition, pour souligner la fragilité de l'existence et l'impermanence des choses.En somme, les montres molles sont bien plus que des curiosités plastiques : elles cristallisent l'obsession dalinienne pour le rêve, le temps, la mémoire et la mort, dans une œuvre qui mêle génie pictural, réflexion philosophique et humour absurde.

EPISODE 557 - Ronald Okuaki Lieber - The Long Journey Out - from the place where I now am, the diary of that journeyAuthor's BioI am of Japanese and Jewish lineage, born in Tokyo, a late post WWII baby. I grew up moving every year until the age of 14 when my parents settled in Petersburg, VA. I graduated with a BS in Biology from the College of William and Mary, then served two years as a Peace Corp volunteer in the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica. I returned to live in NYC and eventually graduated from the MFA Program at Columbia University. I later began psychoanalytic training at the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies. After graduation, I became the Director of the institute and editor of its journal, Modern Psychoanalysis. I have been in private practice since 2001 as a licensed psychoanalyst and recently completed a plant medicine guide training program at the Center for Medicine Work in Philadelphia.My entrance into poetry begins with these lines from “Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey, On Revisiting the Banks of the Wye during a Tour. July 13, 1798” by William Wordsworth:And I have felt A presence that disturbs me with the joy Of elevated thoughts; a sense sublime Of something far more deeply interfused, Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns, And the round ocean and the living air, And the blue sky, and in the mind of man: A motion and a spirit, that impels All thinking things, all objects of all thought, And rolls through all things. Those lines form the basis of my book The Long Journey Out. I was a sophomore in college, adrift in the back of the room in a second semester composition class when the professor read those lines. They woke me from my stupor. There, in those lines, I heard a kindred voice that spoke to an experience I had, an LSD trip, that was, to borrow a cliché, awash in the ineffable, a boundless sense of oneness where any distinction between self and other sundered. That voice joined with another, “An unexamined life is life not worth living,” from which a path emerged, unknown to me at the time--and forgive if what follows sounds pretentious--that took me to Jung, the Peace Corps and Costa Rica, Gurdjieff, poetry, eastern doctrine through The I Ching and the Bhagavad Gita, the TS Eliot of The Four Quartets, Heidegger's Being and Time, the gospels of the New Testament, and too many other books to enumerate, and an abiding curiosity about the unconscious, thus the study and practice of Freud and psychoanalysis, meditation, making do in the East Village of the early 80s, Ashtanga yoga, domestity and two wives and two children, dabbling along the way into neuroscience, windsurfing, and cosmology. The book The Long Journey Out is, from the place where I now am, the diary of that journey.https://www.ronaldokuakilieber.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Guest: Stephen Greenblatt is the John Cogan University Professor of the Humanities at Harvard University.  His numerous books include The Swerve: How the World Became Modern, which won a Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award. His latest is Second Chances: Shakespeare and Freud co authored with Adam Phillips.  He is also the general editor of The Norton Shakespeare.

The current social, political and historical context offers many difficult challenges. We have experienced up close and from a distance awareness of a remarkable number of challenges including the wars, political unrest, growing socioeconomic inequities, climate catastrophe, and human and animal suffering.  These times are also marked by polarized thinking, including among analysts, candidates and in our communities.  An application of a psychoanalytically-informed method that rests on psychoanalytic clinical theory but focuses on group experiences of psycho-historical conflict as it continues in the present is offered as a means to facilitate deep and moving change when there is toxic polarization.    In this episode, Dr. Harriet Wolfe presents a unique application of psychoanalytic thinking.  She describes an interdisciplinary group that is international, intergenerational and diverse that meets periodically to apply analytic thinking to intractable large scale historical group traumas.  This method, called the International Dialogue Initiative includes psychoanalysts but also others (e.g. economists, lawyers, diplomats, historians) who share stories and deeply listen with the purpose of gaining perspective on unmanageable feelings through exploring cases of traumatic residues. While others, including Freud have theorized application of psychoanalysis to groups, this particular use is novel and important in today's times and speaks to how psychoanalysis can be truly psychoanalytic and at the same time be applied to political and social issues. Harriet Wolfe, M.D., is President of the International Psychoanalytical Association, Past President of the American Psychoanalytic Association, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of California San Francisco, and Training and Supervising Analyst at the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis. Her scholarly interests include clinical applications of psychoanalytic research, organizational processes, female development, and therapeutic action. She has co-authored a number of psychoanalytically informed guided activity workbooks for children, parents and teachers to help children cope with natural and manmade disasters. She has a private practice of psychoanalysis, and individual and couple's psychoanalytic psychotherapy in San Francisco.

Qué ridículos todos esos señores de la guerra compitiendo para ver quién tiene la potencia militar más larga. No hay que ser Freud para darse cuenta del simbolismo fálico de tanto cohete y tanta bomba. Lo último de lo último, nos cuenta la propaganda bélica, son esos proyectiles de no sé cuántas toneladas capaces de penetrar sesenta metros en la tierra y llegar hasta el búnker más profundo. Qué más quisieran Trump o Netanyahu.

The Oedipus complex is probably Sigmund Freud’s most famous theory – that every little boy or girl goes through a phase where they want to kill one parent and, well, do things with the other. Good thing Freud just made it up.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with my friend Matt Gray for a powerful conversation about the hidden force driving (or sabotaging) your success: the subconscious mind. We go deep into how the beliefs you carry beneath the surface can either accelerate your success or quietly sabotage everything you're trying to build. Matt and I share personal strategies we've used to reprogram our own thinking, uncover hidden mental roadblocks, and create breakthroughs in our businesses. If you've ever felt stuck despite following the right playbook, this episode will help you understand why. I also loved hearing how Matt approaches content - especially how he taps into the fears and dreams of his audience to create messaging that converts. He shares a brilliant (and simple) survey strategy you can use to build high-impact content from your customer's subconscious beliefs. We even dive into the history of propaganda, PR, and the psychology behind why some people succeed with the same tools that others struggle with. This episode is a crash course in rewriting the internal script that's holding you back. Key Highlights: How your subconscious beliefs quietly shape your business results - whether you know it or not The difference between conscious decisions and the stories your subconscious is really acting on Why traditional mindset work often falls short - and what actually rewires your beliefs Matt's 3-question survey method to uncover exactly what your audience is thinking and feeling A candid breakdown of the “art vs algorithm” debate - and how to create content that stays true to your voice while still performing online The surprising link between Freud, propaganda, and modern sales psychology This episode will challenge the way you think about success - and give you the tools to shift from self-sabotage to unstoppable momentum. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://clickfunnels.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Special thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://nordvpn.com/secrets⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

Neste episódio, leio textos breves de Freud que, embora pequenos em tamanho, abrem vastas janelas para pensar o inconsciente: a educação como terapia antecipada, a psicanálise aplicada à impotência masculina, a escatologia como via de compreensão do humano e até o peso simbólico de uma sequência de vogais. Entre prefácios e provocações, Freud mostra que nada — nem o tabu, nem o riso, nem o lixo — escapa à escuta analítica.“Eles se veem incomodados por tudo que lembre muito claramente a natureza animal do ser humano. Querem imitar os 'anjos perfeitíssimos' [...] mas, como sempre estarão muito longe dessa perfeição, escolheram o expediente de negar ao máximo esse incômodo resíduo terrestre.”Esse artigo se encontra no volume 10 das Obras Completas de Freud da Companhia das Letras, na tradução de Paulo César de Souza.

Neste episódio, leio e comento “A Escolha do Cofrinho” (1913), um ensaio pouco conhecido de Freud onde o mito, a literatura e a psicanálise se encontram. Partindo da cena dos três cofres em O Mercador de Veneza, Freud desdobra sua análise até o mito das Moiras, revelando o desejo inconsciente de escolher a morte sob a máscara do amor e da beleza. Uma reflexão profunda sobre destino, fantasia e o poder simbólico das escolhas."os três laços inevitáveis que o homem tem com a mulher: com a genitora, a companheira e a destruidora; ou as três formas que assume para ele a imagem da mãe, no curso da vida: a própria mãe, a amada, por ele escolhida segundo a imagem daquela, e enfim a mãe Terra, que de novo o acolhe em seu seio."Esse artigo se encontra no volume 10 das Obras Completas de Freud da Companhia das Letras, na tradução de Paulo César de Souza.

Most entrepreneurs try to sell products. Edward Bernays taught us to sell identity. In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I break down the hidden playbook behind influence, persuasion, and mass movement creation. After reading Bernays' book Propaganda, the first of its kind on psychological marketing, I realized we've all been influenced by people we've never met, often without even knowing it. You'll hear how these principles apply to modern marketing, from webinars to branding to stage presentations. This is the kind of episode that will shift how you sell, how you communicate, and how you think. Key Highlights: The true story of Edward Bernays, Freud's nephew and the father of PR How the concept of propaganda turned into public relations and why it matters The simple identity hack that helped us grow ClickFunnels into a movement Why emotional stories sell better than logic and how to craft them How I reframed negative perceptions to flip them into buying beliefs Real examples from politics, religion, and parenting where reframing changes everything When you understand how identity, emotion, and subconscious desires drive decisions, you stop guessing what will sell. You start influencing at a deeper level. Whether you're running ads, speaking on stage, or building your brand, this episode will change the way you think about marketing forever.

In 1911, psychology pioneer Alfred Adler resigned from the presidency of a prestigious society in Vienna—and Sigmund Freud took it personally and deemed Adler an enemy. It didn't stop there. Freud continued to rail against Adler until Freud's death in 1939. The details of the dispute are kind of technical and petty, and we won't get into them today. The effects, however, were massive: Because of Freud's opposition, Adler's work was suppressed for decades. And this is important. See, Adler had some powerful ideas that, decades later, have found their way into a number of well-accepted branches of psychology today – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Family Systems Therapy, to name only a few. Yet Adler's original work remains unknown to most people. Where this fits into copywriting is that some of Adler's core ideas are enormously useful. They can help you with big ideas, hooks, headlines, and understanding customer motivation at a deep level. Download.

But while previously they examined the case of “Anna O.” as told narrowly by Josef Breuer on his own terms, this time they tell the story of the remarkable woman behind it: Bertha Pappenheim. They begin by addressing how the legend of a “hysterical pregnancy” came to overshadow the “Anna O.” case history, and how that apocryphal tale was the product of squabbles and mythmaking involving Freud, his biographers, his students, and his opponents. Next, they turn to the story of Bertha Pappenheim herself, focusing first on the actual details of her treatment with Breuer as well as her subsequent mental health history. Then, they unpack her incredible achievements beyond her time with Breuer. It's a wide-ranging, continent-spanning, and ocean-crossing story of activism, authorship, and intellectual influence, tying together political themes of social work, German feminism, Jewish anti-Zionism, and more.***Ordinary Unhappiness is shifting to three episodes a month during summer 2025 due to health reasons – but Patreon subscribers will still get two exclusive episodes per month, including the Standard Edition series and Wild Analysis!

Tonight's reading comes The History of Psychoanalytic Movement. Written by Sigmund Freud and published in 1917, this book presents the views of Sigmund Freud.

This one's going to rock your world. In episode 132 of Overthink, Ellie and David dig into the earth for the third part of their four-part series on the elements. They discuss everything from earthworms and carbon dating to the “solidity” of the earth. They look to Foucault, Freud, and Husserl for insights about how the earth can act as a metaphor for the mind and for the past. They also wonder: Is the earth inert matter or a living being? And why do so many creation myths present humans as “made” of earth/clay/mud? So, what is it that we actually mean when we talk about earth as an element? In the bonus, your hosts talk think through Heidegger's notion of ground and horizon, and the Western association of land with earth.Works Discussed: Michel Foucault, The Archeology of KnowledgeMartin Heidegger, “ The Origin of the Work of Art”Edmund Husserl, Crisis of the European SciencesDavid Macauley, Elemental Philosophy: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water as Environmental Ideas Thomas Nail, Theory of the EarthJames Lovelock, Gaia hypothesisDorian Sagan and Lynn Margulis, “God, Gaia, and Biophilia”Support the showPatreon | patreon.com/overthinkpodcast Website | overthinkpodcast.comInstagram & Twitter | @overthink_podEmail | dearoverthink@gmail.comYouTube | Overthink podcast

Does your website feel like a warm welcome? If not, this episode is a must-listen. Because branding isn't just about fonts, colors, or messaging–it's about how your clients feel when they land on your digital doorstep. This is a special episode where I sat down with Shay Wheat on her podcast, Creating Powerful Impact. We talked about why the most effective brands start from the inside out. The SOULiD Framework If your brand looks the part but doesn't feel like you, that disconnect shows up everywhere–in your copy, your visuals, and your confidence. That's exactly why we created the SOULiD framework.  It helps uncover your convictions, personality, and purpose, so your website becomes an extension of your most essential self. In this episode, I break down how the process works and why it becomes the foundation for a brand that grows with you. What Hospitality Has to Do With Branding What do restaurants and websites have in common? More than you might think. I grew up in the hospitality industry, and that mindset shapes everything we do at brandiD.  When your clients feel seen, supported, and genuinely cared for, they stick around–and they tell others. In this episode, I talk about how to infuse that same high-touch, high-trust experience you'd expect from a high-end restaurant into your brand, no matter your industry.

We want to get to the core, the essence, or the soul of that person and make sure it's embedded throughout. Aesthetically, in the copy, in the positioning, the differentiators lie there.” 9:19 - 9:29 “We have to all be so dialed into the people we work with and understand their hopes, their fears, their dreams, when they're feeling vulnerable, when they're feeling overwhelmed.” Quotes “With every client, it's like you also have another case study to see if your framework is still applicable.” “Websites, just like clothing, just like hairstyles, they have trends.” “One thing that sets us apart as a web agency is the service that we provide to our clients. It's one thing that people consistently comment on.” “The way you make clients feel, especially in today's competitive market, can help you be around as a company for the long term.” “You are your biggest differentiator.” Links mentioned in this episode: Connect with brandiD Easy Tips to Adjust your website: https://buildmybrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Personality Quiz: https://content.leadquizzes.com/lp/jqgbMsr00g Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

Abby and Patrick welcome journalist and anthropologist Brian Goldstone to discuss his new book, There is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America.  A devastating and essential read, There is No Place for Us tells the stories of five Atlanta families as they join the ranks of an ever-growing class of Americans: the unhoused. Against the grain of common misconceptions about homelessness, the trajectory of these families reflects no errors or blameworthy mistakes on their part, nor still does their situation represent any kind of exception to the rule. In fact, as Brian explains, their stories expose how a variety of institutions – from housing markets to credit monitoring to policing and more – work together to actively push millions of Americans into homelessness, to trap them there, and to exploit their vulnerabilities at every turn. Moreover, as Brian, Abby, and Patrick explore, this reality is mystified by mainstream narratives, prevailing ideologies, and broader anxieties about precarity and homelessness. Unpacking questions of policy, history, and contemporary media coverage, the three discuss how misguided narratives about individual choice, moral desert, mental health, and more subvert recognition of what should be a basic right and policy priority (IE, access to housing), and confront what it would mean to cut through these and other fantasies.Brian Goldstone, There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/645871/there-is-no-place-for-us-by-brian-goldstone/https://www.briangoldstone.net/Have you noticed that Freud is back?

In 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson declared that the third Sunday in June would henceforth be celebrated as Father's Day. It was a symbolic gesture aimed at strengthening paternal bonds, as well as a tacit rejection of the policies recommended by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who had just left Johnson's administration in disgrace after his controversial report on Black family life and poverty was leaked. “As we know it,” Scholar contributor Augustine Sedgewick writes in his new book, “Father's Day is an unintended consequence of the fractious American politics of race, gender, and class.” Sedgewick's book, Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power, is the story of how such politics ensnarled parental care, and of the men who expanded the domain of fathers across generations of crisis and change, from Aristotle and Henry VIII to Freud and Bob Dylan. Go beyond the episode:Augustine Sedgewick's Fatherhood: A History of Love and PowerThe far right's signature style is less about dad pants and more about fatherhood: read Sedgewick's essay “Ku Klux Khaki”“Thoreau's Pencils,” Sedgwick explores the abolitionist's relationship with his family—and his family business's ties to slaveryFor more on the Moynihan Report and political interventions on parenting, read Melinda Cooper's Family ValuesTune in every (other) week to catch interviews with the liveliest voices from literature, the arts, sciences, history, and public affairs; reports on cutting-edge works in progress; long-form narratives; and compelling excerpts from new books.

In the first of a three-part series on Richard Rorty's Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity (1989), Let Us Think About It delves into the concept of contingency. Host Ryder Richards guides listeners through Rorty's radical argument that language, selfhood, and liberal communities are not grounded in universal truths but are crafted through historical chance, like tools in a dynamic toolkit. Drawing on Chapter 1, Ryder explores how language, far from mirroring reality, builds truths through evolving vocabularies, with examples like the French Revolution and Donald Davidson's “passing theories.” Chapter 2 reveals the self as a contingent construction, sculpted through redescriptions, as seen in Freud and Proust. Chapter 3 examines liberal societies as experimental creations, sustained by imaginative solidarity rather than fixed foundations, referencing Isaiah Berlin and Judith Shklar. While admiring Rorty's vivid metaphors and provocative ideas, Ryder critiques his potentially reductive view, questioning whether freedom alone can ensure moral progress. Packed with direct quotes and punchy insights, this episode sets the stage for upcoming discussions on irony and solidarity. Tune in to rethink how we create our world with the tools of language!

Neste podcast: Clóvis de Barros fala sobre como a tragédia de Sófocles se relaciona com a psicanálise de Freud.

Rose Boyt tells Gyles about her unconventional childhood, and about her experiences of being parented by - and painted by - her father Lucian Freud, the celebrated modern artist. This is an extraordinary story: even Gyles is bowled over by the twists and turns of Rose's childhood. Rose's parents were Lucian Freud and the artist Susie Boyt, with whom Freud had three other children. He also had many other children with other women - 14 children in all - and was never a conventional husband or father to any of them. But he was brilliant - dazzlingly entertaining, talented, intelligent and inspiring - and Rose experienced this at first hand when she was painted by him for a nude portrait which is the starting point for her book, Naked Portrait. Rose also spent a year living on a cargo ship in the Baltic, DJ'd with Neneh Cherry, and was briefly engaged to Andy Warhol. This is a fascinating interview about Rose, about Lucian Freud, about the artistic life, and about alternative ways of living and looking at the world.Rose Boyt's book, Naked Portrait is out in paperback, published by Picador. It is highly recommended.This episode was recorded at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House in London. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What is happiness? Why is it so hard to achieve? What is “civilization” and how did it develop? Legendary psychologist Sigmund Freud seeks to answer these questions in his book “Civilization and Its Discontents.” Freud traces the development of human culture all the way from the beginning, all from the psychoanalytic perspective. While modern psychology often keeps Freud at arm's length, there may be some important wisdom to learn from his application of psychoanalytic theories to human development. This is part one in a series on Sigmund Freud's “Civilization and Its Discontents.” It takes a look at Freud's famous analogy of the human mind to the city of Rome, discusses the problem of happiness and why so few are happy in the modern world, and also goes over some psychoanalytic theory and Freud's belief in the id, ego, and superego.  -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!
