It's about time we featured an actual philosopher on PSYCHIC WARFARE, and there's no one better suited than Dr. William Irwin. Dr. Irwin is a professor of philosophy at King's College in Wilkes Barre, PA and is an accomplished author who's topics focus on how philosophy intersects with pop culture. However, he's also an incredibly huge Metallica fan. So much so that he has both edited a book of essays entitled Metallica and Philosophy and written a book of his own, The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Irwin to talk about the philosophical ideas of Metallica's lyrics discussed in the former of the two books, including the search for authentic self, enlightened self interest, and James Hetfield's existentialist lyrics and values.

Delighted to be joined by William Irwin to look back on the period of 2001 to 2003 as Alex McLeish replaced Dick Advocaat as Rangers manager and went on to completely overturn the club's fortunes winning five trophies in this period including a monumental treble. We also look at the off field situation which saw David Murray step down as Rangers chairman with replacements coming in to cut down the debt which was sitting just over £80 million. Join us every week with a new episode of CHRONICLE: The Rangers Journey as we look back in detail of the situation at the club on and off the field from 1988 when Rangers were taken over by businessman David Murray all the way till 2021 when Steven Gerrard clinched the club's historic 55th league title.

Leblanc Distinguished Service Professor and the Chair of Philosophy at King's College in Pennsylvania.  He is also a long time fan of metal and the author of two books examining the music of Metallica.  "Metallica and Philosophy: A Crash Course in Brain Surgery", and "The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics" are the topics of discussion on today's podcast.  Dr. Irwin researched the lyrical subject matter penned by James Hetfield, revealing a rich artistry and a profoundly thoughtful songwriter who draws heavily from life experiences to create some of the greatest metal music ever recorded.  Dr. Irwin shows that Metallica is the thinking-man's (or woman's) band, proving yet again that hard rock and metal has produced some of the most insightful and intelligent music in history.You can take a closer look at William Irwin's work on Metallica using the links below:https://www.amazon.com/Metallica-Philosophy-Crash-Course-Surgery/dp/1665194405 https://www.amazon.com/Meaning-Metallica-Ride-Lyrics/dp/1770416188/ref=d_pd_sbs_sccl_1_1/135-7976432-1169717?pd_rd_w=jbB39&content-id=amzn1.sym.2dc9b33d-bf98-4c85-be26-75af626c0551&pf_rd_p=2dc9b33d-bf98-4c85-be26-75af626c0551&pf_rd_r=XZY45BZZ14GKG9C58M27&pd_rd_wg=aAovv&pd_rd_r=8a2d9f24-1989-4dab-b518-7b8fa89fdda3&pd_rd_i=1770416188&psc=1

This week on the Richard Crouse Show we revisit an interview with the late, great Gilbert Gottfried. As you probably already know, the legendary comedian passed away last month at the age of 67. I saw him perform just two weeks before his died, and while he looked frail, he delivered a show that was sweet, funny and incredibly rude, sometimes all at once, and that was Gilbert's magic. There was no one else quite like him, no one as fearless as he was on stage, or as funny.   This conversation dates from the release of the 2017 documentary Gilbert. We talk about the beginnings of his stand-up career, why he doesn't want his kids to follow in his footsteps and his legendary telling of The Aristocrats, the filthiest joke ever told, in the weeks following 9/11 and how that brough laughter back to New York City. Then we'll meet Professor William Irwin of the Philosophy Department of King's College in Pennsylvania. He is a philosophy professor, literary critic, and heavy metal scholar whose new book “The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics,” takes a serious look at the lyrics of metal's biggest band, disentangling double meanings, explaining stories, uncovering sources, and illuminating themes such as hope, despair, rage, resilience, power, liberty, justice, love, death, and insanity. Do you have young kids at home? If so, a new series might be just the thing you're looking for. “Luna, Chip and Inkie: Adventure Rangers Go” is a new series for 3-6 year olds will be available free and commercial free across Canada on the Knowledge Kids app and website. Within British Columbia, the series will also be available to watch on television on the Knowledge Network station. Creating the music for the series is my guest Daniel Ingram. He is one of the top songwriters working in Children's/Family entertainment and he has written songs for Emily Blunt, Zoey Saldana, Kristin Chenoweth and even Weird Al Yankovic. He has scored hundreds of episodes of television and most popular songs on YouTube have over 100 million online views, with a cumulative catalogue approaching one billion views.

On episode 128, we welcome philosopher William Irwin to discuss his new book ‘The Meaning of Metallica', the band's rise to fame and why so many identified with their music, ‘Master of Puppets' and the insidious nature of addiction, the narrator's resentment in ‘Unforgiven' toward others and how authenticity can become stifled by the collective, vulnerability and discovering the need for intimacy in ‘Unforgiven II' and ‘Unforgiven III', the fantasy and escapism of romance and drug dependence, grandiosity in dream chasing and why we often sacrifice love for the sake of empty recognition, and the significance of pride in fostering a healthy self-conception. William Irwin is Professor of Philosophy at King's College in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania and is best known for originating the "philosophy and popular culture" book genre with Seinfeld and Philosophy: A Book about Everything and Nothing in 1999 and The Simpsons and Philosophy: The D'oh! of Homer in 2001. William's latest books are Little Siddhartha (2018), God Is a Question, Not an Answer (2018), and Both/And. His newest book, out now, is called The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics.

More than 40 years since their formation, and 125 million album sales later, Metallica is as relevant as ever. Much has been written about the band, but never like this. The Meaning of Metallica is like a riveting conversation with a close friend. A thematic tour de force that traces Hetfield's lyrical development across the decades, this companion examines everything from deep cuts like “Confusion” to megahits like “Enter Sandman.” Sure to spark debate and discussion, The Meaning of Metallica provides a close reading of lyrics dense with details and rich with allusions. William Irwin is Herve A. LeBlanc Distinguished Service Professor and Chair of Philosophy at King's College, Pennsylvania. Irwin is best known for having originated the philosophy and popular culture genre of books with Seinfeld and Philosophy (1999), The Simpsons and Philosophy (2001), and The Matrix and Philosophy (2002).

More than 40 years since their formation, and 125 million album sales later, Metallica is as relevant as ever. Much has been written about the band, but “The Meaning of Metallica” is the first book to focus exclusively on their lyrics. Their mighty guitar riffs and pounding drums are legendary, but Metallica's words match the intensity of their tunes. Lead singer James Hetfield writes rock poetry dealing with death, war, addiction, alienation, corruption, freedom, religion, and other weighty topics. Painting a rainbow of emotions with a deft palette, subtle but not obscure, Hetfield's lyrics deserve careful attention. A master of narrative, Metallica makes listeners care about a vast array of characters, from a vengeful God to a suicidal teenager, to a man in mid-life crisis. “The Meaning of Metallica” is like a riveting conversation with a close friend.

Welcome to Episode 13 of Radio Omnicor At Omnicor we are driven to understand as much as possible in the current organisational and development space. Each episode features fascinating guests who will share tools and the latest thinking to help you grow your business, team and your own career. Dr. Nokwethemba Mtshali is the Chief Executive Officer of the Bertha Gxowa Hospital in Germiston in Ekurhuleni. A district hospital with a staff complement of 767, she was appointed permanently after acting for a year. Dr. Mtshali has made a name for herself as the youngest hospital CEO in South Africa at the age of 31. Her vast experience in both private and public healthcare have paved the way to where she is today. Bold and daring, she sharpened her people skills and learnt the importance of teamwork and collective efforts. This conversation will leave you full of hope for South Africa! Nokwethemba has taken very difficult environmental barriers and hacked them at such a young age! Nothing scares her and that is so remarkable. Her thinking is shifting what is possible but maybe, more importantly, she is doing the work, not just thinking about it! What more can we all be doing to contribute?
