Philosophy On Tap

Join your hosts, Tanner and Ryan, to discuss the current state of AI technology, the implications there within, different themes and troupes discussed in literature, TV shows, and other mediums and what they can teach us about potential futures, and how far we should value consciousness versus the vehicle via which consciousness has so far been able to be valued, us.

What is the cost of tribalism and what the consequences of not recognizing it within yourself? In this episode of Philosophy on Tap, join Ryan and Tanner to discuss how we come to believe what we do and why we continue belief in that same fashion. Subsequently, what are the consequences of this unfortunate reality? And, finally, how do we first recognize then attempt to escape these dualistic and harmful forms of thought?

No trust economic systems like cryptocurrency are perpetually on the edge of transforming economics, but what are they and how could they transform our modern world? Is trust a necessary ingredient of a stable society, and if so how do you decide which institutions are worthy of that trust? Join Ryan and Tanner and guest and friend of the show Chad Lagomarsino as they discuss how technology and trust interact to shape the modern world.

What is the power of a word? Can difference in language lead to differences in beliefs? Join hosts Tanner and Ryan as they are joined by his brother and friend of the show Stephen to discuss how determining if something is a soup or a salad may actually shed light on how words shape our reality.

Patterns are reproduced all throughout the natural world, but all seeming to trend from ultimate order to ultimate chaos, a.k.a. entropy. Is it possible that this pattern runs through all life, and all the cosmos, and that ultimately a conscious universe is the emergent result? Join Ryan and Tanner as they discuss how the laws of physics could potentially connect the mystery of consciousness and the divine.
