Episode 135: How to Build a Philosophy.
Philosophy? WTF??
07/21/21 • 17 min
This week join Mike and Danny as they lay out their tools and scavenged resources and commence construction. Yes, what, exactly is required to build a philosophy? The toe bone's connected to the heel bone, the heel bone's connected to the foot bone, the foot bone's connected to the leg bone, the leg bone's connected to the knee bone... but what is the ontology connected to and where are the Allen keys clearly indicated as present in the instructions? So, by all means join us as we begin or exploration into the wonders of flatpac philosophy. But before we start, what about this heat, right? I mean, there is such a thing as too much isn’t there or isn’t there? Perhaps there is never enough of a good thing. We, for our part, are committed to moderation in all things - as much moderation as we can get and as often as we can get it, that’s our motto, or is it life in the fast lane, everything, all the time? Easy to get those two confused.

Episode 151: Evil Special Part 4
Philosophy? WTF??
11/17/21 • 19 min
This week join Mike and Danny and their new band 'The Nasty, Brutish and Short’ as they lay down some more wicked beats to scandalise and appal you all. How, I hear you cry, can we keep such evil under restraint? How will we curb the excesses of these sinful individuals who flout the laws of both god and man? "Some sort of leviathan perhaps?" shouts Hobbs from the back. "What about a sharp stake and some holy symbols?" suggests somebody with a big hat lurking in the shadows. “Maybe a bunch of strategically positioned fig-leaves?” exclaim the naked couple casually spiting out fruit pips at a snake. But wait, surely there is nothing inherently evil about these guy, right? I mean, perhaps it’s the infrastructure they are forced to work within. Let’s smash the system and see what happens! Yes, front row centre its Hannah Arendt and Simone de Beauvoir kicking in doors and taking names. Us? We were just obeying orders.

Philosophy? WTF??
04/17/19 • 20 min
This week WAR! What is it good for? Who can we do it to and why? Augustine leads the charge but only against the bad guys. Also in this exciting episode Danny and Mike try and understand belief. Does faith have an internal logic? What comes first faith or understanding? Is belief the basis of all knowledge? Are Danny and Mike credible sources of information or just two dudes making stuff up? You believe what you want, you’re all grown-ups.
