Sadler's Lectures Incorporated Into TrueSciPhi Radio

I'm very pleased to say that my Sadler's Lectures podcast has been incorporated today into an internet radio station that streams ideas-focused content 24 hours a day, called TrueSciPhi Radio.  They're starting with my episodes on Parmenides, Epictetus, and Descartes, which are airing as I write this.

It's good company to be in. Some of the other podcasts in the rotation include Philosophy Bites, The Big Idea, the Elucidations Podcast, Hi-Phi Nation, Happier Hour, History of Philosophy...

Seven Podcast Episodes on Friedrich Nietzsche's Truth and Lies in an Extra-Moral Sense

One of the authors that my listeners and subscribers have been asking for consistently to be included in my Sadler's Lectures podcast is Friedrich Nietzsche.  In fact, he is a consistent favorite when I create polls about who I ought to produce content on next. 

One of his short essays that I shot a series of core concept videos about several years back is his "Truth and Lies in an Extra-Moral Sense," in which Nietzsche argues, among other things that truth itself is something...

Wisdom For Life Radio Show - Questions and Suggestions

Our first episode of the Wisdom for Life radio show aired last Friday evening on Riverwest Radio - WXRW 104.1 FM - here in Milwaukee.  My co-host, Dan Hayes, and I go live every other Friday from 5 to 6 PM, discussing philosophy and its applications to challenges, problems, and issues of everyday life.

The first show went pretty well - not perfect, of course, but that's part of the fun of live radio!  We introduced the main idea of the show and ourselves as hosts, then shifted into...

Eight Podcast Episodes on The Introduction to Martin Heidegger's Being and Time

One of the most recent series in the Sadler's Lectures podcast - discussing the key ideas from the Martin Heidegger's Introduction to his early work, Being and Time - emerged out of polling my viewers, listeners, and other followers about which thinkers they'd like to hear next in the podcast.  Heidegger was definitely a favorite!

The eight podcast episodes linked to here take the listener through the key ideas and discussions of that introduction.  One of the more difficult aspects...

Sadler's Honest Review - Piotr Stankiewicz, Does Happiness Write Blank Pages?

I recently added a new review to my Sadler's Honest Reviews series - this one focusing on Piotr Stankiewicz's work, Does Happiness Write Blank Pages?  On Stoicism and Artistic Creativity.

Put very simply, I highly recommend his book, both for its discussion of modern Stoicism and for its examination of artistic creativity.  Here's the video review, going into the details about why I recommend the book.
 
This review is the tenth in the series.  If you'd like to watch...

Five Podcast Episodes On Anselm's Proslogion

One of the often underrated Medieval thinkers who I teach routinely in Introduction to Philosophy classes is Anselm of Canterbury.  He also happens to be the thinker upon whom I've published the most in the course of my academic career - and I point that out mainly to stress that he's definitely a thinker whose works are worth studying.  The work most students encounter him through is the Proslogion - or rather a short portion of it, chapter 2 (maybe supplemented by 3 and 4) - since...

I'm hosting another online AMA (Ask Me Anything...

I'm hosting another online AMA (Ask Me Anything) session tomorrow.  It starts at noon Central Time, and runs for about an hour-and-a-half.  (I started out scheduling them for an hour, but they've always ended up running over due to the number of questions and comments that I end up getting).

Here's the video page for the session - if you click through to it, you can set yourself a reminder so that you don't miss the event.

Wisdom for Life Radio Show Coming Up - Questions Welcome!

In the last few years, I've done ethics consulting work and a number of guest appearances with a local radio station, WXRW-Riverwest Radio. This is a community radio station, so there's a considerably wider variety of shows than on most other radio stations and networks.  They've been asking for some time whether I'd be interested in producing a philosophy-focused show for the station. And starting at the end of the month, that is going to be the case!
The new show is called Wisdom for...

Five Recent Guest Appearances and Interviews

It's been a while since I did a roundup of my recent appearances on radio shows, podcasts, and video channels, so it's time for another one!
I make these lists every so often, as the appearances accumulate. I also have a more comprehensive list of most of my appearances in the last seven or eight years over at my company website, if you'd like to check any of those out.
I get fairly regular requests to talk about a variety of topics because of my philosophy-focused YouTube channel, my podcast,...

Eleven More Podcast Episodes on Rene Descartes' Meditations

Last week, I provided links to eleven podcast episodes focused upon Rene Descartes' Meditations on First Philosophy, covering the first three of his meditations.  Here are the remaining eleven podcast episodes, covering meditations four through six.  They run about another 2 1/2 hours of listening time.  Here they are:
