Everyone has the right to know the truth about where they come from. Unraveling Me speaks to those people impacted by DNA surprises, NPEs (non-paternal event), adoption, assisted reproduction, and other revelations that their parentage isn't entirely what they thought.

- When to stay, when to leave, and how to tell the difference
- Figs's signature frameworks including Waltz of Pain, Compass of Shame, Proof of Work, the Pursue-Withdraw Cycle, and more

In Human, All Too Human, Friedrich Nietzsche boldly invites readers on a journey of personal liberation. This work, subtitled A Book for Free Spirits, stands as a powerful testament to overcoming societal constraints and embracing one’s true identity. Each line resonates with triumph as Nietzsche sheds the burdens of foreign ideals that clash with his authentic self. He provocatively states, Where you see ideal things, I see things which are only—human, alas! all-too-human! This profound exploration challenges us to recognize the free spirit as one who has bravely reclaimed their identity, free from the weight of imposed beliefs. Join us in discovering how to cultivate the courage to live authentically and embrace our humanity.

This is a podcast for those who would not merely study Nietzsche, but risk hearing him.

The Partially Examined Life is a podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a short text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don't have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we're talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion. For links to the texts we discuss and other info, check out www.partiallyexaminedlife.com. We also feature episodes from other podcasts by our hosts to round out your partially examined life, including Pretty Much Pop (prettymuchpop.com, covering all media), Nakedly Examined Music (nakedlyexaminedmusic.com, deconstructing songs), Philosophy vs. Improv (philosophyimprov.com, fun with performance skills and philosophical ideas), and (sub)Text (subtextpodcast.com, looking deeply at lit and film).
