Podcasts about Theseus

Cartoonists Brad Guigar and Dave Kellett dig into the many ways we react to humor — from full-on belly laughs to the silent internal “that was good” response. After that the way, they tackle some big (and surprisingly relatable) topics:Are they actually going to use Patreon Quips?Dave's Bad 2025 — what went wrong, what he learned, and why it mattersWhy you never stop building an audience, even when things feel “established”And yes… being scared of Reddit comments is universal!SummaryIn this episode of Comic Lab, hosts Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar dive into the nature of humor in comics, prompted by a listener's question about whether funny comics truly elicit laughter or if they are simply enjoyable. Brad and Dave explore the subjective nature of humor, sharing their own experiences with laughter and recognition of craft in comedy. Next, they delve into the ongoing journey of building and maintaining an audience in the ever-evolving landscape of comics. They emphasize that there is no such thing as a 'built audience.' Audience engagement is a continuous process that requires constant effort and adaptation. Drawing on the metaphor of the Ship of Theseus, they discuss how creators must regularly replace and update their strategies to keep their audience engaged, acknowledging that audience members may leave for various reasons, including life changes or simply forgetting about the content.The conversation also touches on the emotional toll of negative feedback, particularly on platforms like Reddit, where creators often face harsh criticism. Brad and Dave share personal anecdotes about dealing with trolls and the importance of focusing on the positive aspects of audience engagement. They conclude by reinforcing the idea that the creative journey is ongoing, and that every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.Takeaways"Not every year is going to be gangbusters."There's no such thing as a built audience; you're always in building mode.Audience engagement is like the Ship of Theseus; it's constantly changing.You should aim to gain 2-6% new audience every month to replace those who leave.Negative comments often come from unhappy individuals; don't take them personally.Every creator must continually learn and adapt to thrive in the industry.

The Python cryptography module, pyca/cryptography, has mostly been a sane wrapper around a pile of C, so that users get performant cryptography on the many, many platforms Python targets. Therefore its maintainers, Alex Gaynor and Paul Kehrer, have become intimately familiar with OpenSSL. Recently, they declared that after many years of trying to make it work, they announced pyca/cryptography would be moving away from OpenSSL when supporting new functionality and exploring adding other backends instead. We invited them on to tell us about what has happened to OpenSSL, even after the investments and improvements following Heartbleed.

What if everything we think we know about the brain is just a really good metaphor that we forgot was a metaphor?This episode takes you on a journey through the history of scientific simplification, from a young Karl Friston watching wood lice in his garden to the bold claims that your mind is literally software running on biological hardware.We bring together some of the most brilliant minds we've interviewed — Professor Mazviita Chirimuuta, Francois Chollet, Joscha Bach, Professor Luciano Floridi, Professor Noam Chomsky, Nobel laureate John Jumper, and more — to wrestle with a deceptively simple question: *When scientists simplify reality to study it, what gets captured and what gets lost?**Key ideas explored:**The Spherical Cow Problem* — Science requires simplification. We're limited creatures trying to understand systems far more complex than our working memory can hold. But when does a useful model become a dangerous illusion?*The Kaleidoscope Hypothesis* — Francois Chollet's beautiful idea that beneath all the apparent chaos of reality lies simple, repeating patterns — like bits of colored glass in a kaleidoscope creating infinite complexity. Is this profound truth or Platonic wishful thinking?*Is Software Really Spirit?* — Joscha Bach makes the provocative claim that software is literally spirit, not metaphorically. We push back on this, asking whether the "sameness" we see across different computers running the same program exists in nature or only in our descriptions.*The Cultural Illusion of AGI* — Why does artificial general intelligence seem so inevitable to people in Silicon Valley? Professor Chirimuuta suggests we might be caught in a "cultural historical illusion" — our mechanistic assumptions about minds making AI seem like destiny when it might just be a bet.*Prediction vs. Understanding* — Nobel Prize winner John Jumper: AI can predict and control, but understanding requires a human in the loop. Throughout history, we've described the brain as hydraulic pumps, telegraph networks, telephone switchboards, and now computers. Each metaphor felt obviously true at the time. This episode asks: what will we think was naive about our current assumptions in fifty years?Featuring insights from *The Brain Abstracted* by Mazviita Chirimuuta — possibly the most influential book on how we think about thinking in 2025.---TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 The Wood Louse & The Spherical Cow00:02:04 The Necessity of Abstraction00:04:42 Simplicius vs. Ignorantio: The Boxing Match00:06:39 The Kaleidoscope Hypothesis00:08:40 Is the Mind Software?00:13:15 Critique of Causal Patterns00:14:40 Temperature is Not a Thing00:18:24 The Ship of Theseus & Ontology00:23:45 Metaphors Hardening into Reality00:25:41 The Illusion of AGI Inevitability00:27:45 Prediction vs. Understanding00:32:00 Climbing the Mountain vs. The Helicopter00:34:53 Haptic Realism & The Limits of Knowledge---REFERENCES:Person:[00:00:00] Karl Friston (UCL)https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk/1236-karl-friston[00:06:30] Francois Chollethttps://fchollet.com/[00:14:41] Cesar Hidalgo, MLST interview.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzpFOJRteeI[00:30:30] Terence Tao's Bloghttps://terrytao.wordpress.com/Book:[00:02:25] The Brain Abstractedhttps://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262548045/the-brain-abstracted/[00:06:00] On Learned Ignorancehttps://www.amazon.com/Nicholas-Cusa-learned-ignorance-translation/dp/0938060236[00:24:15] Science and the Modern Worldhttps://amazon.com/dp/0684836394RESCRIPT:https://app.rescript.info/public/share/CYy0ex2M2kvcVRdMnSUky5O7H7hB7v2u_nVhoUiuKD4PDF Transcript: https://app.rescript.info/api/public/sessions/6c44c41e1e0fa6dd/pdf Thank you to Dr. Maxwell Ramstead for early script work on this show (Ph.D student of Friston) and the woodlice story came from him!

Cats Cradle is inspired by the Greek myth Ariadne and her journey from Crete to Naxos. Like The Fates, she is associated with the symbol of the thread, which she uses to help Theseus kill the Minotaur. Central to Ariadne's story is her deification, her transcendence from mortal to divine through a union with Dionysus. By revisiting this ancient myth, Cats Cradle invites viewers to reflect on how they navigate their own inner labyrinths of identity and transformation. https://www.instagram.com/allysonglennart/ https://www.facebook.com/allyson.glenn.1/ What motivated you to make this film? I was preparing for a solo art exhibition called Date with Hermes: Journeying between Dreams and Reality for the Vorres Museum in Greece (2024). The curator, Dr. Katerina Pizania, suggested I create an animation to connect the Greek myth themes. While the show focused on large-scale paintings and works on paper, the film became a companion piece to my series on Ariadne and Dionysus. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? I only had two months to develop the animation for the first exhibition, so the first version was more of an “outline.”Completing the film took a year and a half. How would you describe your film in two words!? Intense! What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? Time! As a full-time Associate Professor at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, I worked on the animation during weekends with invaluable help from students and alumni. ---- Subscribe to the podcast: https://twitter.com/wildsoundpod https://www.instagram.com/wildsoundpod https://www.facebook.com/wildsoundpod

Happy Holidays- New Episodes starting Jan. 5th Every cell in your body changes, so why do you have a sense of continuity of the self – as though you're the same person you were a month ago? What does this have to do with the watercraft of the Greek demigod Theseus, or the End-of-History illusion, or why you go through so much trouble to make things comfortable for your future self, even though you don't know that person? And if there really were an afterlife, what age would your deity make everyone for living out their eternities? Join this week for a two-parter about the mysteries of selfhood.

#vzzzPodcast-Seite: https://vonzeitzuzeit.gordianus.de/2025/12/19/vz143-helden-social-media-jugend-kultur-im-wandel/ In Folge 143 des Podcasts „Von Zeit zu Zeit" nehmen euch Gordian und Jan mit auf eine Reise durch antike Heldenbilder, moderne Social-Media-Kulturen und gesellschaftliche Veränderungen – von altgriechische Helden über Spider-Man bis hin zu TikTok und Bluesky - und der Frage, was Heldentum heute noch bedeutet. Helden gestern und heute Wir starten das Gespräch mit der berühmten Laokon-Gruppe aus der griechischen Mythologie und es entwickelt sich schnell zur Frage: Was macht einen Helden aus? Während antike Helden wie Theseus besondere Fähigkeiten hatten und sich gefährlichen Herausforderungen stellten, die oft tragisch endeten, funktionieren moderne Helden anders. Superhelden wie Spider-Man, Batman oder Superman tragen zwar noch tragische Elemente in sich, doch aktuelle Serienhelden setzen eher auf Inselbegabungen – fotografisches Gedächtnis, besondere Kombinationsgabe oder übernatürliche Kräfte – ohne die existenziellen Entscheidungen klassischer Heldenfiguren. Wir diskutieren, wie Heldenbilder gesellschaftliche Zustände spiegeln: In den 1980ern stand der mühsame Aufstieg oder hartes Training im Vordergrund (Rocky), heute dominieren Charaktere, die ohne große Anstrengung anerkannt werden (wollen) – ein Spiegel unserer Kultur.​ Social Media, Bluesky und die Medienlandschaft Ein zentraler Teil dieser Folge widmet sich der aktuellen Social-Media-Landschaft, insbesondere dem Aufstieg von Bluesky als Alternative zu Twitter/X und Facebook. Gordian reflektiert über die Verschmelzung seiner bisher getrennten Online-Communities und die Herausforderungen, die entstehen, wenn man plötzlich Bekannte aus verschiedenen Lebensbereichen auf einer Plattform trifft. Wir beleuchten auch kritisch, wie Social Media funktioniert: Plattformen wie TikTok, Instagram oder Facebook kuratieren Inhalte algorithmisch, um Nutzer:innen möglichst lange zu binden – nicht um zu informieren. Die Frage nach Pressefreiheit, demokratischen Strukturen und der Rolle von Medien in einer zunehmend von Algorithmen gesteuerten Informationslandschaft zieht sich durch die Diskussion.​ Kulturelle Reflexion und gesellschaftlicher Wandel Wir beginnen erst zum Ende hin mit unserer obligatorischen Bier-Verkostung und werfen anschließend noch einen Blick auf kulturelle Entwicklungen der letzten Jahrzehnte, von der Reichseinigung Deutschlands 1871 und ihren Auswirkungen auf Frankreich bis hin zur Frage, ob wir in einer Phase des demokratischen Wachstums oder Rückschritts leben. Besonders spannend: die Diskussion darüber, wie Kunst und Medien gesellschaftliche Bedürfnisse widerspiegeln und wie unterschiedlich Demokratien weltweit funktionieren.​ Die Folge verbindet dabei große gesellschaftliche Fragen mit persönlichen Reflexionen – ein Format, das zeigt, wie Popkultur, Geschichte und Alltagsmomente zusammenhängen. In dieser Episode erfährst du: - Warum antike und moderne Helden so unterschiedlich sind und was das über unsere Gesellschaft aussagt - Wie Social-Media-Plattformen wie Bluesky, TikTok und Co. unsere Informationskultur prägen - Welche Rolle Algorithmen bei der Kuratierung von Inhalten spielen und warum „Social Media" nicht gleich „Medien" ist - Warum Pressefreiheit und demokratische Strukturen in Zeiten von KI und Algorithmen neu gedacht werden müssen Abonnier unseren Podcast hier oder auch auf Spotify, Apple oder Youtube, teile diese Folge mit Freund:innen.

Well, hello! We're in the midst of our Tarsem Singh-a-thon, and today we bring you a discussion of Immortals (2011), a very silly sword and sandal film about Theseus and Phaedra (sort of) and their interactions with a monomaniacal king, random characters of Greek myth, and the gods, who are never quite sure what they want. Oh, and HATS. This movie is honestly mostly nonsense, but it looks great. Also, this is our last episode before the holidays, so have a cozy end-of-December, and we'll ring in the new year (late, probably) with an episode about The Fall (2006).As always, rate, review, and email us if you want to!

Today, we are introducing Plato's Phaedo, "on the soul," with Alec Bianco of the Circe Institute and with Athenian Stranger. We'll discuss why to read the great books, why we read Plato, how you should read Plato, and why to read the Phaedo.We then do a deep dive into the opening of the Phaedo, especially on the setting and the myth of Theseus-where a subtle, attentive read unearths a beautifully rich allusion. We'll end with some advice for first time readers of the Phaedo. Visit thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule.Visit our COLLECTION of written guides on the great books!NEXT TWO WEEKS we'll be joined by Dr. Christopher Frey of the University of Tulsa who will walk us argument by argument through the Phaedo.

Garlick at THE ASCENT.

In this episode, Dcn. Harrison Garlick and Dr. Pavlos Papadopoulos dive into Plato's Crito, a dialogue set in Socrates' prison cell as he awaits execution. They explore Socrates' refusal to escape, his debt of gratitude to Athens, and the tension between philosophy and the polis's poetic traditions. Through engaging analysis, they unpack the dialogue's themes of justice, piety, and civic obligation, offering insights for first-time readers and drawing parallels to modern liberal democracy.Dr. Pavlos Papadopoulos, Assistant Professor of Humanities at Wyoming Catholic College, joins the episode. With a BA from St. John's College and a PhD in politics from the University of Dallas, he brings expertise in Plato, having written his dissertation on the philosopher.Visit thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Visit our COLLECTION of written guides on the works of Plato!Summary:The questions explored about Plato's Crito reveal key themes of justice, piety, gratitude, and the tension between philosophy and the polis. Socrates' imprisonment, set against Athens' cultural life governed by the poetic myth of Theseus, underscores the conflict between philosophical inquiry and the city's traditional piety, highlighting philosophy's precarious role in a society shaped by poetry. His dream of a woman prophesying his arrival in Phthia, echoing Achilles' fates, reframes his acceptance of death as a philosophical heroism, prioritizing justice over survival. Crito's arguments for escape, rooted in emotional appeals to public opinion and familial duty, contrast with Socrates' rational defense of his obligation to Athens, articulated through the laws as a debt of gratitude that cannot be repaid, distinguishing his view of the city as a fatherland from modern social contract theory's individualistic framework. The laws' warning that escape would “destroy” the polis emphasizes the necessity of upholding civic order, while Athens' allowance of philosophy, despite its antagonism, parallels liberal democracy's permissive yet flawed support for diverse pursuits. The references to the Corybantes and God at the dialogue's end subtly integrate divine sanction with rational argument, affirming Socrates' serene commitment to justice as both a philosophical and spiritual act, challenging first-time readers to consider the interplay of individual conscience, civic duty, and divine order in navigating moral dilemmas.Check out YOUTUBE page and our COLLECTION of guides!

What happens when we venture beyond the horizon of self and encounter the world? In this profound continuation of our houses journey, Brian Clark and I explore the second half of the astrological wheel - where we meet the other, confront our shadows, and discover our place in the cosmic order.Recorded during a solar eclipse at the equinox (coinciding with Brian's 76th birthday), our conversation takes on a synchronistic quality that exemplifies how astrology works through us rather than merely being studied by us. Following the thread of Ariadne from Greek mythology, we explore how she reveals family secrets, follows the heroic impulse, and ultimately finds her way to the center after being abandoned - mirroring our own soul journey.The seventh house brings us to the horizon where we encounter "the other" - that quality in relationships that reveals parts of ourselves we've yet to recognize. As Brian notes, "We marry our own shadow." Moving into the eighth, we face "loving in the face of loss" and discover how betrayal becomes a pathway to consciousness. The ninth house offers rebirth into spirit and wonder, while the tenth shapes our character through vocation and contribution. We then explore the communal eleventh house before concluding with the twelfth - a sanctuary for our exiled parts that need integration.Throughout our dialogue, we return to Ariadne staring at the sea as Theseus abandons her, then turning toward the center of Naxos where Dionysus awaits. This powerful image captures how our greatest disappointments often lead us to our truest path - when we give back to the sea what was never truly ours and find ourselves essential parts of something greater.How might your relationship struggles be mirrors revealing aspects of yourself? What ancestral patterns are you carrying in your intimate connections? Where do you find genuine rebirth after painful losses? Join us for this expansive exploration of how we become ourselves through our encounter with the world.* The blurb above was generated by Buzzprout's AITo find out more about Brian's work go to astrosynthesis.com.au.Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

The Final Fantasy Tactics you played back on the PS1 is not the real Final Fantasy Tactics. In fact, if you played it in the West you missed out on entire games-within-games that not only flesh out the world of Ivalice, but hold clues to the future of Square Enix. And these secrets are all tucked away in... Sound Novels!That's right, this week Victor and Nadia are joined by experts in the history of Japanese adventure games, Tom James and BowlofLentils, to discuss how The Ivalice Chronicles is steering us back onto the path of understanding the lineage of this misunderstood genre.

You probably know the Ancient Greek myth of Theseus and the Minotaur, who lives in a labyrinth under Knossos on the island of Crete - was there ever really a labyrinth, or a King Minos?

If all your cells are replaced every seven years, are you the same person? If you lost your memories, would you still be you? In this episode, we're tackling the big, brain-bending question of personal identity. We'll journey from the ancient Ship of Theseus paradox to the idea that you are a story you tell yourself. This isn't a dry philosophy lecture; it's a fun, fascinating, and sometimes startling exploration into the very core of your being. Get ready to question everything you thought you knew about who you are.

In this bonus episode, Dr. Christian Körner takes us into the world of Iron Age Cyprus and its city-kingdoms, exploring the foundation myths that shaped their identities. With legendary figures like Pygmalion, who fashioned a statue that came to life; Myrrha, the tragic mother of Adonis; and Teucer, the exiled half-brother of Ajax who is said to have founded Salamis. Other examples include Acamas, son of Theseus, who was linked to the founding of Soli; Agapenor, the Arcadian king who settled in Paphos after the Trojan War; and Kinyras, the mythical king of Cyprus associated with Aphrodite's cult and with musical and priestly traditions that echo Greek heroic ideals. Körner explains how these myths should be seen as intentional histories, crafted to serve political, cultural, or even propagandistic purposes at the time they were written down. While many stories link Cypriot origins to Athenian or Homeric heroes, others, like those of Amathus and Paphos, emphasize local roots. He also highlights how these myths often aimed to explain place names, assert legitimacy, or reinforce alliances—effectively serving as ancient “branding campaigns” for the cities, reinforcing cultural ties while also asserting the island's unique local identity.

This week's podcast has a bit of a mobster flair.  It's a two parter with the first part dedicated to the life of Henry Hill, the subject of the movie Goodfellas and mentioned a bit previously on our podcast about the Lufthansa Heist.  From there we turn our attention to the Copacabana, the NY nightclub famed for some of it's early mob connections and amazingly still open today (if you believe in the Ship of Theseus).

From their portrayal through iconic myths involving Heracles, Achilles, and Theseus to modern misconceptions, Tristan and David reveal the Amazons' roles in epic tales like the Trojan War and their artistic representations on ancient Greek vases and temple reliefs.These formidable warrior women were not only central figures in mythology but also revered city founders, astronomers and festival creators, far more than their popular depiction as alluring and dangerous figures.MOREAchilleshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/6uNHjwkzMHT5Ql2NHixZvl?si=7098cc9c847141e4The Thracianshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/6uvIfj2fkYhoJZsn4y1SDX?si=1yLefV8PSSO2ZzZzY5T9yAAres: God of Warhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/6mER4RZ11k56eqV1uoVvNsPresented by Tristan Hughes.

Despite their different gods, countries, and customs, our young heroes find they have more in common than they thought when Theseus tells Ariadne about how he discovered his true origins.
