From PayPal to Palantir, his vision has shifted from decentralization to a fusion of state and corporate control, aligning himself with the rising forces of the new right. In this episode, we examine his 2009 essay The Education of a Libertarian, tracing the contradictions in his ideology and the deeper implications of his political influence today. Joined by Dr. Gregory Sadler, we explore Thiel's evolution, his role in shaping contemporary conservatism, and what his vision means for the future of democracy and governance.Support the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastJoin The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comRevolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.comSplit Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/
Very pleased to finally be joined by Gregory Sadler on the podcast! Greg is one of the more popular teachers of philosophy in the modern age, and given his recent courses on Stoicism, we decided to make that the focus. I hope you all enjoy our conversation: about philosophy as a guide to life, Stoicism versus Epicureanism, distortions of Stoicism and Nietzsche, whether philosophy is self-help, and the relevance of Stoicism to modern life.

He has reached impressive popularity on YouTube, and his channel has over 130.000 subscribers and 13 million views.

His channel is an absolute gold mine for anyone interested in philosophy. We talk about the process of learning philosophy, the importance of good teachers, considerations about translated works, secondary literature, philosophical biases, truth, and much more. It was a very engaging conversation and one of my favorite episodes!

[Before you read the episode description: Listeners in Toronto should check out these upcoming events! https://twitter.com/BenBurgis/status/1509997688162594820 ]Ben Burgis and the GTAA Crew (this week featuring the Prodigal Producer Cale returning to sub for Current Producer Jake) are talk about the latest free speech controversy and Ben's article in Current Affairs about "whataboutism" and the anti-war Left being accused of being Putin apologists. Then Ben's interview with philosophy professor, popular YouTuber and popularizer of neo-Stoicism Gregory B. Sadler, released to patrons late last year, is unlocked as the main event. Gregory talks about subjects ranging from teaching philosophy in prison to the Stoic practice of "premeditatio malorum." It's very good stuff.In a second substitution, the part of Jennifer Burgis (on her way to Texas for a family commitment) is played by philosophy professor Ryan Lake, who in return for his generosity with his time is subjected to having to watch a Ben Shapiro clip on Lake's specialty (free will and determinism) in the philosophy segment. Finally, Jason Myles from This is Revolution hang's out in the postgame for GTAA patrons.To watch the postgame w/Jason and every patron-exclusive postgame, as well as to access the Discord server and various other benefits--and most importantly to earn our undying love and gratitude for supporting the work we do and letting us keep it going--become a GTAA patron:patreon.com/benburgisWatch Gregory B.

Slavoj Zizek comes back on the show to explain what he means by "communism" and how it relates to other ideas about socialism and capitalism. Later, in the philosophy segment, Ben and (since Professor Jennifer Burgis is still sick) Matt McManus discuss the question apparently being asked in the Washington Post about whether Immanuel Kant was a Critical Race Theorist. Also, Ben and the crew talk Christopher Hitchens, Henry Kissinger and Theranos, and there's preview for the patron Saturday bonus ep w/Gregory Sadler (on moral luck, Stoicism, and teaching philosophy in prison). Speaking of patrons (ahem: patreon.com/benburgis), in the postgame Djene Bajalan joined to talk about Prager U's love of the British Empire and what Milo has been up to since the mainstream Right dropped him.Buy Slavoj's new book:https://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Disorder-Slavoj-%C5%BDi%C5%BEek/dp/1682192814/ref=sr_1_2Buy the Hitchens book:https://redemmas.org/titles/36536-christopher-hitchens--what-he-got-right--how-he-went-wrong--and-why-he-still-mattersTake Ben's Speakeasy class in December:https://www.speakeasy.com/e/g-cohenFollow Matt McManus on Twitter: @mattpolprofFollow Gregory Sadler on Twitter: @philosopher70Follow Djene Bjalan on Twitter: @djenebajalanIndependent creators rely on your support to create the content you want!

LifeBlood: We talked about critical thinking, why it's more important than ever, how to get better at it, how to become a better consumer of news and information, and why it's harder than ever to do it. We discussed the idea of information literacy, why it's harder today than in times past to be able to trust our news sources, the reasons behind that, and how to become better consumers of news. We talked about critical thinking, how it has been taught in Universities for a long time, and how it's value and the need for it is bigger than it's ever been, how the Stoics thought about it and applied it. We discussed the Stoic virtue of justice, how to apply it to the biggest problems and issues were facing today like vaccines and abortion, how it's really important to go far beyond rhetoric and talking points if you really want to form an opinion on these issues, and how to engage in civilized discourse on difficult issues. We talked about how to avoid binary thinking, how to appreciate and consider nuance, why it's essential to consider motivations and how to pursue truth with Dr. Gregory Sadler, philosopher, speaker, author, podcaster, consultant, coach and content creator.

He has an MA and a Ph.D. in Philosophy from Southern Illinois University and is a certified Philosophical Counselor. Gregory joins me today to share how he decided to major in philosophy in the early days of his post-Army journey into academia. We discuss the various relationships he’s had with the great thinkers of our times and why no single philosopher has all the rules you should live your life by. Gregory explains how positive psychology and religion are both modes of ‘intentional living’ when we consider how to make decisions rationally. He also shares the philosophers who have inspired him, the famous and the not so famous, from Plutarch to Aristotle to the lesser known academics such as Alasdair MacIntyre. “If you can make sense out of human nature using philosophy in ways that are not narrowly specialized, you can do that as an organizational psychologist or you can do that as somebody who's going to come in and fix the HR department” - Gregory Sadler Today on Mastering Midlife: How Gregory turned an interest in ‘the realm of ideas’ into a solid academic career in philosophy How cognitive therapy, such as REBT and CBT, can play an important role in helping understand our past traumas Why you should consider a mix of philosophical teachers when asking the big life questions What it means to be a ‘rational animal’ Why Plutarch is Gregorys recommended go-to if you want to understand human relationships Gregory's picks of the 20th and 21st Century great philosophers Why you should avoid buying into an idea of your own brilliance Resources Mentioned: Book: The Myth of Sisyphus Book: Aristotle’s Nichomachen Ethics Book: Cicero: On Old Age On Friendship On Divination Author: Alasdair MacIntyre Book: The Racial Contract Connect with Gregory Sadler: Gregory Sadler’s Website Gregory Sadler on LinkedIn Gregory Sadler on YouTube Gregory Sadler on Facebook Gregory Sadler on Twitter Are you a busy, overwhelmed business leader?

In this episode, guest host Greg Sadler discusses why reading Stoic texts, in particular classical primary sources, is an important practice for anyone who wants to really understand and progress in Stoicism. He draws in particular on three letters by Seneca, 33, 94, and 95, which discuss whether one can adequately understand Stoic philosophy by relying upon quotations or even precepts, and why it is important to keep going back to study the Stoic texts we have available.You can find Greg on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/GregoryBSadler/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/drgbsadlerTwitter - https://twitter.com/philosopher70or at his business, ReasonIO - http://reasonio.com/

Sadler on YouTube: www.youtube.com/gbisadler. Born in Rocken, in Prussia in 1844, Nietzsche set out his career in philology but later turned to writing idiosyncratic philosophical treatise and collections of aphorisms. He directed these against the pious dogmas of Christianity and traditional philosophy. He saw both as self-serving veils drawn over the harsher realities of life. He felt we needed not a high moral or theological ideals but a deeply critical form of cultural genealogy that would uncover the reasons why we humans are as we are and how we have come to be this way. He believed that every great philosopher actually a kind of involuntary and unconscious memoir rather than conducting an impersonal search for knowledge. Studying our own moral genealogy cannot help us escape or transcend ourselves but it can enable us to see our illusions more clearly and lead a more vital, assertive existence. There is no God in this picture. The human beings who created God have also killed him. It is now up to us alone. The way to live is not to throw ourselves into faith but into our own lives, conducting them in affirmation of every moment, exactly as it without wishing anything was different and without harbouring resentment for others or our fate (Sarah Bakewell, The Existentialist Cafe, p.19-20).

Sadler on YouTube: www.youtube.com/gbisadler. Born in Rocken, in Prussia in 1844, Nietzsche set out his career in philology but later turned to writing idiosyncratic philosophical treatise and collections of aphorisms. He directed these against the pious dogmas of Christianity and traditional philosophy. He saw both as self-serving veils drawn over the harsher realities of life. He felt we needed not a high moral or theological ideals but a deeply critical form of cultural genealogy that would uncover the reasons why we humans are as we are and how we have come to be this way. He believed that every great philosopher actually a kind of involuntary and unconscious memoir rather than conducting an impersonal search for knowledge. Studying our own moral genealogy cannot help us escape or transcend ourselves but it can enable us to see our illusions more clearly and lead a more vital, assertive existence. There is no God in this picture. The human beings who created God have also killed him. It is now up to us alone. The way to live is not to throw ourselves into faith but into our own lives, conducting them in affirmation of every moment, exactly as it without wishing anything was different and without harbouring resentment for others or our fate (Sarah Bakewell, The Existentialist Cafe, p.19-20).

For the Stoics, a main focus is pursuing virtue to attain a well-examined life through practical applications of Philosophy – acting with good character, using reason to form accurate careful judgments about the world, and achieving contentment. Stoic writers focus on many perennial human concerns and urge people to take action applying what they learn to everyday life. Self-improvement is central to Stoic thought – strengthening and improving one's mindset.

Of things that exist, some are in our power and some are not in our power. Those that are in our power are conception, choice, desire, aversion, and in a word, those things that are our own doing. Those that are not under our control are the body, property or possessions, reputation, positions of authority, and in a word, such things that are not our own doing. - Epictetus The dichotomy of control is a central theme of Stoicism but how do we best understand it?
