Episode 7: The role of military today

In this episode we are inspired by Slovenian philosopher and psychoanalyst Slavoj Zizek's comments about how we as society can take something that is untrue and make it true even without anyone believing it to be true.  This brings up questions of what it means to be human. Credits go to @karanv.eer (IG), @severdkite (Twitter) for bringing up the clip and elaborating on it. Go check him out on the social. Also remember to follow us @philotalkspodcast

Episode 6: Making beliefs into truths

In this episode we discuss leadership, our experiences of leadership positions, what that says about us as people and what we have learned from those experiences. We touch briefly on more general leadership aspects as well. Please hit us up with any questions you have or if if you want to chat: philotalkquestions@gmail.com or on IG: @philotalks 

Episode 5: Leadership

In this Episode we chat about the global health pandemic that is the Coronavirus. No real structure for this one, just a conversation. We start with a first person perspective, how it has affected us so far and how we are feeling about it. We then move to some of the more broad and general implications of the outbreak on the world. This one has a bit of everything we like: feelings, politics, social analysis, economics and of course philosophy.

Episode 4: Corona feels

In this episode we get into a discussion about ethics. We investigate different ways of thinking about morality, and interrogate our own and each other's views on what it means to live moral life. We stray into economic and political morality and this heats the debate up. 

Episode 3: Ethics

In this episode we dive into populism. We run through some brief definitions and initial conceptions, then cover a few iconic populist movements of the course of industrial history.

Episode 2: Populism

Our first podcast ever! Join Luke and Shanti as we get into our first podcast in very shakey fashion. Recorded on an Iphone in the vioce memos app, quality of sound is low. We aim to just talk freely and explore what topics we may be interested to discuss in the future. We experiencve technical difficulties towards the end. So this is just he first part of out chat, the rest of the conversation will be posted as "part 2" once we iron out the issues. Enjoy!

Episode 1: part 1

Philo Talks is a conversation between two friends opened and shared with the world. Our aim is to learn through conversation, reflection and critical thought, while developing our view of the world, hopefully, with help from you. We discuss a wide range of topics, but always from a philosophical perspective.
