The Republic, The Symposium, The Apology...there's no shortage of outstanding Platonic dialogues. But what do you know about Plato's longest work, the Laws? In this episode, I introduce you to what is arguably Plato's greatest writing and explain why you must read it.

Confused about Heidegger's word DASEIN? I've got you covered. This episode is designed to make the notion slightly easier to understand. You'll get the most out of it if you listen until the end but if the lightbulb goes off at any point, thank God for that!

"God as law, awe and fortune...
LLM analysis reveals that the concept of God is well-defined in semantic space by this three-word combination. It provides a closer match than, for example, Lord, Yahweh and Elohim."
That's what Jordan Peterson posted today, referring to research by Victor Swift at https://www.collectivelabs.ai/semantic-core-clarification
In this video, I walk through the claims of the paper to see whether they deliver on the promise of clarifying our concept of God.
Why would we prefer the LLM to other ways of learning about God, like through the study of theology, mysticism, and philosophy? Is the LLM uniquely insightful?
Enjoy!

In this episode, I explain why I use philosophy, politics, and mysticism to make sense of the world.
What are they and how do they differ?
Why do we need all three?
What's the connection?
It's the approach I use on this channel and in my online courses at MillermanSchool.com. You'll also see it reflected in my Heidegger book and, to a slightly lesser extent, my Dugin book.
What do you think?
Is this a good approach?
What's yours?

What's up with the "everyone I don't like is Hitler" phenomenon? It's strange but not incomprehensible. Post-war liberal zealotry (combined with leftist antifascism) coded a lot of things as "far-right" and made them taboo, including some important things that we need in order to understand political and human life well. That's the argument of this video.

In this spontaneous musing, I dive into the surprising connections between two films: Whatever Works and Another Round. Both movies explore the complexities of love, life, and personal growth, showing that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to finding happiness and meaning.
Drawing on insights from philosophy, I discuss how these films reflect the idea that life's advice isn't universal; what works for one person may not work for another. This theme is echoed in the characters' experiences with love and drinking in the movies, highlighting the unpredictable nature of life.
But I also discuss how Whatever Works doesn't mean that Anything Goes! There is still room for good life advice, and you'll hardly find a better of that than Socrates, especially the down-to-earth version we get in Xenophon's Memorabilia.

He's been called a proto-communist and a proto-fascist. Why? And can both be true? Let's take a closer look...By the way, my comments are deliberately introductory. There are other factors I didn't mention, like the issue of free speech vs. censorship, since the Republic includes a defence of censorship! But the goal of this short presentation is to whet the appetite of newcomers, not to provide a comprehensive overview. That's something I do in my Plato course (PlatoCourse.com).Thanks for listening!
