Finding Superman: How Did Humanity Get So Soft? Somewhere along the way, humanity traded its hunger for comfort—and in doing so, tamed the tiger within. In this episode, Dr. JC Doornick (The Dragon) takes you on a journey from the streets of post-earthquake Haiti to the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, exploring how society, culture, and convenience have softened our edge, silenced our will to power, and lulled us into complacency. Through stories, philosophy, and reflection, you'll rediscover Nietzsche's concept of the Übermensch—the human who dares to rise above conformity, reclaim meaning, and say yes to life even in the storm. This is not about judgment. It's about remembering who we are, what we're capable of, and what it takes to awaken the untamed creator within. Because the world doesn't need more comfort, it requires more courage. The tiger's still there—waiting for you to let it out of its cage. Make Sense?

Cette semaine, dans le magazine IDÉES, Pierre-Édouard Deldique reçoit Sophie Nordmann. Philosophe et professeure agrégée de philosophie. Elle vient de publier un essai intitulé : « La vocation de philosophe, puissance de la mise en question » (Calmann-Lévy) dans les pages duquel elle explique que, selon elle, cet amour de la sagesse n'a pas pour vocation de produire des savoirs, mais de les bousculer. Elle en parle avec passion et précision dans l'émission. « Comment ne pas suffoquer quand l'air est irrespirable ? Où reprendre son souffle quand l'atmosphère est saturée ? La pensée, elle aussi, a besoin de respirer pour se maintenir vivante », écrit Sophie Nordmann, alors elle propose une conception audacieuse du rôle de la philosophie dans notre monde contemporain. Loin d'être une simple discipline académique, la philosophie y est présentée comme une pratique vivante de la mise en question, un geste qui libère la pensée des carcans idéologiques et des dogmatismes du moment. Professeure à l'École pratique des Hautes Études, à Paris, référence dans sa spécialité, l'auteure qui nous parle au micro avec une grande clarté ne cherche pas à transmettre des doctrines ou des concepts figés. Elle invite plutôt à éprouver la capacité de la philosophie à créer un «appel d'air» dans les discours qui saturent nos sociétés. Dans un monde plein de certitudes, le philosophe devient un empêcheur de penser en rond, à l'image de Socrate, Descartes, Kant ou Nietzsche, figures centrales du livre et précieux compagnons de vie. L'ouvrage ne se veut pas une histoire de la philosophie, mais en effet une exploration du geste philosophique de quatre penseurs : - Socrate : la maïeutique, ou l'art d'accoucher les esprits - Descartes : le doute méthodique comme outil de discernement - Kant : la critique comme fondement de la liberté - Nietzsche : la pensée comme transgression et création Spécialiste de la philosophie juive contemporaine, Sophie Nordmann insiste sur le courage qu'exige la pensée philosophique : celui de se déprendre de soi, de ses certitudes, pour ouvrir un espace critique et respirable. Elle distingue clairement la philosophie de la science : là où la science cherche des réponses dans un champ donné, la philosophie n'a pas de champ, elle est quête de mise en question. Non pas pour nous déséquilibrer, mais pour voir la vie autrement.   Programmation musicale :  Naïssam Jalal, Robinson Khoury - Souffle #8.

In this second episode of our fascism series, Cameron and Ray trace the roots of fascism from the French Revolution through the 19th century and into the early 20th century. They explore how nationalism, the Enlightenment and Counter-Enlightenment, industrial upheaval, social Darwinism, Nietzsche's philosophy, Bismarck's realpolitik, futurism, and mass psychology all fed into the eventual rise of fascism. Along the way, they compare past anxieties about modernity with today's fears of AI and technology, dig into the religious devotion of MAGA Trumpism, and unpack the Italian Fascist Manifesto of 1919. By the end, the groundwork is set for how Mussolini and others fused these cultural, philosophical, and political threads into a movement that would reshape the 20th century. The post #138 – Fascism: The Remix of History's Worst Ideas (Fascism part 2) appeared first on The BS Filter.

Nietzsche unveils the cast of characters who shaped the life and legacy of the controversial philosopher—Friedrich (“Fritz”) Nietzsche. His mother wanted him to be a pastor. His musical mentor wanted him to defend antisemitism. His sister wanted power. His love interest wanted freedom. And Fritz wanted to love life—all of it. But how? What do you do when you adore people whose values you abhor? The musical unfolds as a series of flashbacks leading to an explosive conclusion: Fritz goes insane; his sister, Elisabeth, allies with the Nazis; and his love, Lou Salomé, vows to honor their bond and write a book that will set the record straight.Book, lyrics, and music by Kimerer LaMotheMusic and orchestrations by Geoffrey Gee

Today we talk about two famous critiques of Stoicism. One by Friedrich Nietzsche who thought the Stoics weren't life affirming enough and so rob themselves of some of the best parts of life. The other by Arthur Schopenhauer who thought the Stoics were too life-affirming of worldly things to ever reach a deep understanding of things.

Ahead of their age, awaiting ours: Kierkegaard, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche!

Real philosophers love Jesus. Once you've said that "all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden" in Christ, that's it. There's no wisdom left for pretenders like Plato, Descartes, Nietzsche. It's all in Jesus. And it's "hidden." Hidden from those who claim to love wisdom, but who aren't willing to look for it at the Source. We're in the letter of 1 Corinthians today to conclude Jim's message, The Degree That Destroys.

O conceito de razão instrumental é um dos mais interessantes da Escola de Frankfurt para nos ajudar a compreender a forma como pensamos hoje nas sociedades capitalistas.

Piše Sanja Podržaj, bere Eva Longyka Marušič. Poezija Blaža Iršiča ni všečna. Ne zazira se zasanjano v daljave, ne posluša šelestenja drevesnih krošenj in ne opeva lepot bivanja, še manj veličine človekovega duha. Te pesmi ne nudijo pobega pred pritlehnostjo naših življenj, zasidranih v rutino delavnika, ki ji uidemo enkrat na leto, če imamo srečo, da gremo na obalo gledat borovce. Iršičeva prva pesniška zbirka Poezija za avtomehanike je izšla leta 2016. Kljub neizprosni pankerski drži »ne jebem sistema«, v kateri se mešata jeza in zafrkancija, je bilo nekaj na tej zbirki nevšečne poezije tako všečnega, da je avtorju prinesla nominacijo za Jenkovo nagrado in bila kmalu razprodana in ponatisnjena, kar je pri pesniških zbirkah redko, pri prvencih pa še posebej. Leta 2019 ji je sledila zbirka Človek pod luno, skoraj deset let od izida prvenca pa je pred nami tretja zbirka, ki ima od vseh morda najbolj provokativen naslov, Parada heteroseksualcev, a je od vseh treh najbolj umirjena, ne več tako jezna, a tudi ne sprijaznjena. Cinična, ironična, na trenutke temačna kot brezno eksistencialnega obupa, takšna je Parada heteroseksualcev, ob vsem tem pa nas še nasmeji, čeprav bi se morda rajši zjokali nad absurdnostjo življenja, ki jo razgalja Iršičeva poezija. Umrejo dobri in umrejo slabi. Umrejo tisti, ki živijo zdravo in tečejo maratone, tako kot umrejo tisti, ki maratonsko popivajo. »Življenje je zelo dolg skok s padalom, / ki se na koncu ne odpre,« je zapisal Iršič, bralka pa se lahko vpraša Je važno, kaj počnemo, medtem ko padamo? Pod navidezno frivolnostjo vznikajo resna vprašanja, a odgovorov ni na vidiku. Poezija Blaža Iršiča odslikava duh časa, v katerem je bog mrtev, smisel razpršen, edina tolažba, čeprav slaba, pa je smrt. Življenje je nekaj, kar je pač treba preživeti. O tem, kako bi ga morali preživljati, smo bombardirani na vsakem koraku. Najti moramo svojo pot, svojo resnico, svoj pravi jaz, to pa storimo tako, da vstajamo ob petih zjutraj, se ukvarjamo s tekom ali jogo, hodimo na terapijo in meditiramo. Z vsem tem seveda poskrbimo, da smo produktivni delavci in dobri potrošniki. To je smisel, ki nam ga daje kapitalizem in vse, kar delamo v imenu skrbi zase, delamo zato, da smo lahko kar se da učinkoviti člani družbe. Meditiramo, da ne ponorimo – dokler ne ponorimo. Iršičeva poezija je to, kar se zgodi po tem. Meditacija je iz duhovne prakse postala le še eno orodje za obvladovanje stresa, tako kot je punk iz družbenega gibanja postal samo še ena od estetik. Če želimo doseči pankerski videz, moramo samo opraviti nekaj nakupov, par klikov je dovolj. Kako se sploh upirati v sistemu, ki vsako obliko odpora ponotranji in vsrka vase ter jo nazadnje spremeni v produkt, ki ga je mogoče kupiti? Morda je mali upor lahko poezija, ki ni zavezana k temu, da proizvaja karkoli uporabnega, niti smiselnega. Zato se Iršič lahko v nekaterih pesmih približa globokim eksistencialnim vprašanjem, spet v drugih pa je lahko zafrkljivo igriv, na primer v pesmi Biti npr. kruh: »''Si črn?'' / ''Ne. Polbel.''« V tej drži, ki se ne ozira na to, kakšna naj bi poezija bila, je tisti duh punka, ki je tako velikokrat omenjen, ko je govora o poeziji Blaža Iršiča. Pa tudi v neposrednosti besed in same forme, ki se ne trudi biti eksperimentalna, ter v dejstvu, da nič ni varno pred tem, da bi končalo v pesmi. Jezus in papež nista nič bolj sveta od pijancev in perverznežev, Picasso, Modigliani, Nietzsche in Rimbaud pa se v pesmih ne pojavljajo, da bi pesnik s tem izkazal svoje poznavanje umetnosti, filozofije in nadrealistov, temveč zato, da lahko reče »ko jih jebe« in postavi palčka na vrt. Zbirka Parade heteroseksualcev je precej obsežna in večinoma gre za daljše pesmi, med katerimi pa se občasno pojavljajo krajše, ki obsegajo le nekaj vrstic in spominjajo na bolj ali manj posrečene šale ter delujejo kot žganje, s katerim presekamo runde piva. Vsem pa je skupna nepredvidljivost, zaradi katere je zbirko užitek brati. Glavna odlika zbirke je ludizem, ki se ne ozira na »visoko« in »nizko«, ampak vse izenači, ker, kot je v enem izmed intervjujev povedal avtor: »Vse to obstaja. To je dovolj.« Tako smo priča nepričakovanim preskokom med globokimi premisleki in absurdom, med (skoraj) romantiko in vulgarnostjo, med zafrkancijo in smrtno resnostjo. Zbirka zaradi te mešanice deluje pristno in življenjsko, to ni poezija iz pregovornega slonokoščenega stolpa, je poezija povprečne človekove izkušnje, ki je pogosto protislovna in nemalokrat zmedena. Ne gre za to, da bi pesmi skušale izpričati neko občečloveško izkustvo, bolj za to, da se zaradi njihove neposredne iskrenosti bralke in bralci z njimi lahko povežemo, še najbolj na tistih mestih, ki so najbolj odkrita, surova, tudi boleča, kot je na primer začetek pesmi Duša: »Imam noge, / da pobegnem, / pa sem še vedno tu. / Če bi duša res lahko zapustila mrtvo telo, / bi ga gotovo kdaj pa kdaj zapustila, / tudi dokler je še živo. / Vsaj kakšna lajdra od duše, / vsaj za kakšen dan.« Jezik, ki je sproščen, na trenutke pogovoren, vseskozi pa nepretenciozno preprost in vsakdanji, ima veliko vlogo pri komunikativnosti pesmi, ob branju se skoraj zdi, kot bi se pesnik pogovarjal z nami oziroma nas nagovarjal. Pesmi nam približa tudi humor tako v svojih svetlejših kot tudi v najbolj temnih legah. Nič ni tako resnega, niti življenje niti smrt, še manj poezija. Vendar pa kljub humorju v tonu zbirke prevlada mol, nekakšna melanholija, ki izhaja iz nenehne eksistencialne krize, v kateri sta se znašla posameznik in družba. Kot bi pod vsem tem humorjem tlela groza pred breznom, ki zre nazaj v nas. Kot bi bil humor še edina obramba, ki je preostala. Zajebantska poezija Blaža Iršiča je smrtno resna. Kaj ima z vsem tem opraviti parada heteroseksualcev? Vse in nič, kdo bi zares vedel. Blaž Iršič ne ve, kaj so binkošti, zna pa pisati večplastno, kompleksno in hkrati izredno dostopno poezijo. Morda ta deset let po prvencu ni več tako nabita z uporniško jezo, a še vedno ostaja družbeno kritična, poglobila pa se je v eksistencialni razsežnosti. Pesnikov slog se v desetletju ni kaj dosti spremenil, a se ga kljub temu ne moremo naveličati. Konec koncev za poezijo in pesnjenje ne velja dogma večnega napredka.

According to the Jewish tradition, we are in the High Holy Days. According to the news, we are in the lowest unholy days. Both are true. As global tensions escalate, this paradox points directly to the teaching of the Bhagavad Gita: The war to be concerned with is the inner battle between your ego and your soul. The Gita has inspired much of modern Western philosophy—from Schopenhauer and Hegel to Nietzsche and beyond—yet none of those thinkers got the real message being transmitted. Accurate understanding of the Gita's profound instructions is essential now for physical survival in this time of tribulation and, more importantly, for spiritual salvation.

Il Novecento è l'età delle contraddizioni e conflitti e la crisi è proprio il tema affrontato dagli artisti nella prima metà di questo secolo. Filosofi, pittori e letterati raccolgono l'eredità lasciata dall'800, la crisi dei valori, della ragione, che consegna all'uomo la visione della sua stessa angoscia.

Modern men are lost between two extremes: the collapse of Western culture into nihilism, and counterfeit promises of strength built on pride and power. Nietzsche saw the death of God, but he had no answer for what would come after. Today, many young men feel that same abyss: isolation, weakness, and meaninglessness.In this powerful conversation with Fr. John Strickland, we explore Nietzsche's tragic life, Jordan Peterson's popular interpretation, and why Orthodoxy offers the only path to true strength and stability. From Father Seraphim Rose's warnings about nihilism to the collapse of woke liberalism and shallow vitalism, we trace how society fell—and how men can return to truth.If you're a man searching for clarity, brotherhood, and stability in a collapsing world, join the Genesis Workshop.

Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, in his work The Joyful Wisdom, explored this through a thought experiment he called the "eternal return." He asked us to imagine: What if you had to live this very life, exactly as it is—every joy, every sorrow, every thought—over and over, for eternity? How would you feel? Would you embrace it? Or, as Nietzsche suspected, would you recoil in horror? Nietzsche believed this reaction reveals a deep-seated struggle many have with regrets and missed opportunities. His work, which dates back to 1882, shows that the anguish of missing out on one's life is not new but common to us all. So how can we avoid regret? What are these common regrets? What about relationships? Are these regrets unavoidable? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In which Robert and Amy invite Nicolas Krusek, a teacher & presenter on both the theory and the history of music, literature, and philosophy, to discuss Fredrich Nietzsche, and what this unique, inspirational, controversial 19th century philosopher has to offer us in living our own best lives. What casual readers (and most Objectivists) miss (or get outright wrong), and what Nietzsche offers those who're willing to approach his work firsthand, with fresh eyes.

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En este episodio les presento la lectura de un fragmento de "Freud: una interpretación de la cultura", de Paul Ricœur, en el que se detalla la aportación a la hermenéutica de los llamados filósofos de la sospecha: Marx, Nietzsche y Freud. Ricœur muestra cómo cada uno, desde su perspectiva, nos invita a desconfiar de la superficie de los discursos y a desvelar lo que se oculta tras ellos: las estructuras económicas, las fuerzas del deseo y las formas del inconsciente. Este texto constituye una puerta de entrada privilegiada a la hermenéutica contemporánea, pues nos recuerda que interpretar no es solo comprender, sino también sospechar, criticar y descubrir lo latente en lo manifiesto.

When Nietzsche declared “God is dead,” he named the spiritual vacuum men now feel. In this conversation, Fr. John Strickland traces how secular ideologies (from utilitarianism to Marxism) borrowed Christian morality, cut it off from God, and led us to nihilism—a culture where nothing holds, and men drift. We contrast that collapse with a return to order: living as sons, brothers, husbands, and fathers under Christ—real hierarchy, real responsibility, real community.If you're a man (20–45) disillusioned with modern culture and hungry for stability and strength, join our Genesis Workshop.

When religion becomes shallow it's no longer truly religion. Many philosophers have warned us of this, of religion being reduced to self-serving functions. 

Support Our Cause at https://libri-vox.org/donateIn 1887, with the view of amplifying and completing certain new doctrines which he had merely sketched in Beyond Good and Evil (see especially Aphorism 260), Nietzsche published The Genealogy of Morals. This work is perhaps the least aphoristic, in form, of all Nietzsche's productions. For analytical power, more especially in those parts where Nietzsche examines the ascetic ideal, The Genealogy of Morals is unequalled by any other of his works; and, in the light which it throws upon the attitude of the ecclesiast to the man of resentment and misfortune, it is one of the most valuable contributions to sacerdotal psychology.

In this episode of Ascend, The Great Books Podcast, host Deacon Harrison Garlick is joined by Fr. Justin Brophy, a Dominican friar and Assistant Professor of Political Science at Providence College, to dive into the first half of Plato's Apology. Check out thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule.Check out our collection of guides on the great books!The discussion explores Socrates' defense speech at his trial in 399 BC, set against the backdrop of post-Peloponnesian War Athens. The conversation delves into key themes, including the role of Aristophanes' The Clouds in shaping Socrates' negative reputation, the tension between philosophy and politics, and the influence of Alcibiades on the charges of impiety and corrupting the youth. Fr. Brophy and Deacon Garlick examine Socrates' claim of divine wisdom from the Oracle of Delphi, his distinction between human and divine wisdom, and his refusal to charge fees, distinguishing him from sophists. They also discuss the broader implications of Socrates as a threat to the democratic polis, the conflict between philosophy and poetry, and the natural antagonism between the demos and the great-souled man. The episode highlights Socrates' pedagogical approach and the relevance of his trial to modern questions of truth, virtue, and societal stability.Guest Introduction: Fr. Justin Brophy is a Dominican friar and Assistant Professor of Political Science at Providence College, where he has taught for five years. Holding a PhD in political theory from the University of Notre Dame, his teaching interests include ancient and contemporary political theory, philosophical conceptions of the human psyche, and thinkers such as Plato, Augustine, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Freud, and those in the modern Catholic intellectual tradition like Romano Guardini, Joseph Pieper, and Walker Percy. Fr. Brophy also serves as the director of the Center for Catholic and Dominican Studies at Providence College, fostering mission integration and intellectual exploration. His current research focuses on the political significance of Plato's Symposium, a dialogue he considers his favorite for its exploration of Eros and its historical context tied to Athens' decline.Key Discussion Points:Historical Context: The Apology is set in 399 BC, after Athens' defeat in the Peloponnesian War (404 BC) and Alcibiades' assassination (404 BC). The charges of impiety and corrupting the youth may indirectly target Socrates for Alcibiades' role in Athens' downfall, constrained by a post-war amnesty (23B-C).Aristophanes' The Clouds: Socrates addresses old accusations (18a) that he “can make the worst argument the stronger” and “does not believe in the gods,” rooted in Aristophanes' caricature of him as a sophist and atheist in The Clouds, which shaped public perception and fueled the trial's charges (19C, 31B-C).Philosophy vs. Politics: Socrates' philosophical questioning challenges the polis' laws and cultural norms, making him a political threat. Fr. Brophy notes, “Philosophy… forces you to reevaluate… the regime… the principles of law and… your culture. And that can be dangerous” (17B).Alcibiades' Influence: Alcibiades, a charismatic figure linked to Socrates, is seen as a key example of corrupting the youth due to his role in the disastrous Sicilian Expedition and defection to Sparta, amplifying fears of Socrates' influence (23B-C).Socratic Wisdom and the Oracle: Socrates recounts the Oracle of Delphi's claim that he is the wisest man (20E), leading him to...

In this special episode, recorded live at "Torchlight" last April, I reflect on the defining losses, trials, and awakenings of my life through the lens of poetry and personal story. Drawing on Nietzsche's insight that “to live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning in the suffering,” I explore how our deepest wounds can become bridges—not barriers—to human connection. This is an honest meditation on grief, growth, and the strange alchemy that happens when we turn toward our pain and find each other there. I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed. You can email me at poetdelayed@gmail.com.

A győzelem fogalma sokkal összetettebb, mint ahogy első ránézésre tűnhet. A legmélyebb és legmaradandóbb győzelem talán önmagunk legyőzése. Ez nem mások legyőzését jelenti, hanem saját korlátaink, félelmeink és gyengeségeink leküzdését. Nietzsche szerint a legerősebb … Anno Budapest: győzelmeink olvasásának folytatása →

The panel discusses four poems from Edwin Muir's collection The Narrow Place (1943), with a focus on their formal features, their connexion to a version of Nietzsche's philosophy, and their opposed characterisation of the civilised and natural worlds.Continue reading

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En este episodio nos adentramos en el pensamiento de Paul Ricœur, una de las voces más influyentes de la hermenéutica contemporánea. Exploraremos su relación con la llamada “escuela de la sospecha”, que reúne a Marx, Nietzsche y Freud como grandes maestros de la crítica; revisaremos su propuesta del “conflicto de las interpretaciones”, donde la diversidad de lecturas lejos de ser un obstáculo se convierte en la riqueza misma de la comprensión; abordaremos la realidad del símbolo, como mediación indispensable para acceder a las dimensiones más profundas de la existencia; y, finalmente, su reflexión sobre la reconquista de la persona, que abre un horizonte de responsabilidad y esperanza frente al mal y la fragilidad humana. Gracias por acompañarme en este recorrido. Vuestro apoyo y escucha son la fuerza que mantiene vivo este espacio de reflexión filosófica compartida. 📗ÍNDICE 0. Resúmenes iniciales. 1. VIDA Y OBRAS. 2.

My guest in this week's Book Club podcast is the Albanian-born political philosopher Lea Ypi, whose new book Indignity: A Life Reimagined reconstructs the story of her grandmother's early life amid the turbulence of the early and mid twentieth century. She talks to me about using the techniques of fiction to supply the gaps in the archive, about Albania's troubling position as a tiny power among great ones, why the fight between Kant and Nietzsche remains a live one — and how online trolls sparked her quest for a restorative account of her beloved grandmother's life.  Hosted on Acast.

Many business leaders craft successful companies but only a few elevate that to the level of a masterpiece. What is it about some companies and leaders that allows them to achieve this status? How does the vision of ‘the good life' differ across corporations, large and small?Charles Spinosa is a management consultant and the author of several books. His latest book is called Leadership as Masterpiece Creation: What Business Leaders Can Learn from the Humanities about Moral Risk-Taking.Greg and Charles discuss Charles's vision of business leaders as artists and creators who shape organizations into masterpieces, rooted deeply in humanities and philosophy. The conversation covers various business leaders, including Jeff Bezos, and how their leadership styles create distinctive moral orders within their companies. Charles connects principles from Shakespeare, Nietzsche, and Machiavelli to modern business practices and explains how leaders can cultivate courage and virtue within their organizations. They also explore the differences between founders and inheritors of businesses, the role of leaders in shaping corporate culture, and the implications for leadership education.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The three questions behind masterpiece leadership18:05: My three questions are: What always goes wrong here? That tends to be an easy question for 80% of them to answer. What would you love to do instead? That is the hard question. That is the one you think is easy, but what would you love to do instead? That is hard because these men and women are geniuses at managing around what always goes wrong. They have been rewarded for managing around it, and they are good at it. And then, once we can get to “What would you love?”—what risks do you need to take to do what you would love? And that is where we begin to work out the kinds of risks, the hard risks they are going to take. Because when they make these changes, if they do not succeed, they are going to be seen as not just foolish, but actually evil. They have gone out and harmed people in careers and so forth. So we have to figure out those, and then we have to put them in a kind of strategic order. But that is, in short, my masterpiece-building strategy. Leadership as a moral masterpiece03:10: Masterpieces are not just attractive and compelling aesthetically. Masterpieces give us a distinct new way to live that we consider a good life. They are moral masterpieces, and they are morally distinctive.Cultivating courage in organizations42:34: It is not that hard to build a company that cultivates courage. When you realize that part of courage is realizing that you figure what you think is right, and then you compose a way for people to hear it.Why leadership calls for admiration22:15: I can admire Google, and I can admire Amazon. A lot of people cannot. I have had people walk out on me when I say that about Amazon. But choose another company—choose The Body Shop, choose Zuckerberg's company, Meta—quite different from Amazon. Again, if we can admire different companies, we do not have to embrace everything we admire, and that gives us a sense of different good lives that we can admire. And I want that to be the virtue that we develop, which is a step above tolerance. I mean, really, with tolerance, which is the modern virtue for dealing with difference, we tolerate things that are different that we cannot eliminate. They are too powerful. We do not consider them quite as good. We tolerate them, but it is never a happy tolerance.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Friedrich NietzscheJeff BezosWilliam ShakespeareOthelloIagoHamletJack WelchMartin HeideggerLorenzo ZambranoJames C.

The Galapagos Affair is a gripping tale of idealism, conflict, and mystery set on the remote Floreana Island in the Galapagos during the early 1930s. In 1929, Dr. Friedrich Ritter and Dore Strauch, both disillusioned with modern life, left their spouses in Germany to pursue a solitary, Nietzsche-inspired existence on Floreana, building a home called Friedo and living as vegetarians. Their dream soured as Dore's multiple sclerosis worsened and Friedrich's harsh demeanor strained their relationship. In 1932, the Wittmer family—Heinz, Margret, and their frail son—arrived, seeking a healthier life, but were met with hostility from Friedrich and Dore. Tensions escalated with the arrival of the flamboyant Baroness Eloise von Wagner and her lovers, Rudolf Lorenz and Robert Philippson, who planned to build a hotel, Hacienda Paradiso, and clashed with the others by seizing a vital freshwater spring and intercepting their letters. A 1934 drought intensified conflicts, and in March, the Baroness and Philippson vanished after Margret claimed they left for Tahiti—a story doubted due to no recorded ship and their belongings remaining. Lorenz, a suspect, disappeared with a Norwegian fisherman, their bodies later found on Marchena, likely from dehydration. In November, Friedrich died after eating contaminated chicken, officially an accident, but conflicting accounts from Dore and Margret suggest possible foul play. Dore returned to Germany, publishing Satan in Eden, while the Wittmers stayed, later opening a successful hotel. The 2014 documentary The Galapagos Affair: Satan Came to Eden and the 2024 film Eden explore this unresolved mystery, leaving questions about murder, betrayal, or escape in a paradise turned sinister.   Sources: The Galapagos Affair: Satan Came To Eden (2013)  Documentary, biography, crime.

The study of ancient Greece has been central to Western conceptions of history since the Renaissance. The Muse of History: The Ancient Greeks from the Enlightenment to the Present (Harvard UP, 2024) traces the shifting patterns of this preoccupation in the last three centuries, in which successive generations have reinterpreted the Greeks in the light of their contemporary worlds. Thus, in the eighteenth century, the conflict between Athens and Sparta became a touchstone in the development of republicanism, and in the nineteenth, Athens came to represent the democratic ideal. Amid the ideological conflicts of the twentieth century, the Greeks were imagined in an age of suffering, inspiring defenses against nationalism, Nazism, communism, and capitalism. Oswyn Murray draws powerful conclusions from this historiography, using the ever-changing narrative of ancient Greece to illuminate grand theories of human society. Analyzing the influence of historians and philosophers including Hegel, Burckhardt, Nietzsche, and Braudel, Murray also considers how coming generations might perceive the Greeks. Along the way, The Muse of History offers rare behind-the-scenes glimpses of figures who shaped the study of ancient Greece, some devotedly cited to this day and others forgotten. We sit in on a class with Arnaldo Momigliano; meet Moses Finley after his arrival in England; eavesdrop on Paul Veyne, Jean-Pierre Vernant, and Pierre Vidal-Naquet; and rediscover Michel Foucault. A thrilling work that rewrites established scholarly traditions and locates important ideas in unexpected places, The Muse of History reminds us that the meaning of the past is always made in and for the present.

Dive into this epic conversation on the Mike Drop Podcast with Green Beret legend Mark Giaconia. A 20-year Army veteran who traded infantry boots for Special Forces grit, Mark opens up about his raw reaction to 9/11—burning with jealousy as Fifth Group charged into Afghanistan, only to carve his own pinnacle in Iraq's brutal ops. But before the GWOT glory, he takes us back to the forgotten chaos of Bosnia in the late '90s, where peacekeeping turned into high-stakes intel gathering: embedding in remote villages, renting houses amid fresh war scars, and dodging tense standoffs with Serbian cops who grabbed their weapons at the sight of an American. From concealed pistols and civilian rides to wild encounters—like spotting a Beirut bombing fugitive in a roadside eatery or monitoring Russian convoys on the brink of World War III—Mark's stories pulse with the raw edge of undercover life in a powder keg. We geek out on metal shredding (check Patreon for the deep dive), philosophy from Socrates to Nietzsche, and his time-travel wish to homestead in colonial Connecticut. Whether it's surviving Ranger School's 200+ day grind, losing 40 pounds in the suck, or bonding with locals over slivovitz amid genocide echoes, this episode hooks you with unfiltered warrior wisdom, historical twists, and the unexamined life's brutal truths. Don't miss Mark's insights on human nature, founding principles, and why the Balkans' hospitality hides a world of shadows—perfect fuel for any Mike Drop fan craving real talk from the front lines.
