Thank you very much for your wonderful episodes.

I really liked this episode! I've always been someone who completely changes careers every year or two. I just get really bored once I fully understand how to do something. It has meant that I don't make as much money as I would have if I had stuck with one thing, but it has been extremely fulfilling. This is one of those episodes where I hear for the first time an ideology I already agree with.

Horacio Venturino

I listen to them since three years. Just a request, if possible. Please talk a little slower. The subjects you treat are complex, to follow the ideas and understand them it is necessary to process them while you talk.

Horacio Venturino

Congratulations for the show. It makes the world better to me!

If I read some Gilles Deleuze what would I be getting? I'm interested in more fun and exciting ways to use machines and flows. Is that what I would be getting? More examples of the interesting things that come from thinking this way?

Kim Lenters

This Deleuze series has been fabulous. All I can say is: more, more, more!

Hi! Just joined your amazing patreon page. Wanted to thank you for opening my eyes on philosophy. I'm at some of the first 20 +- episodes and so far it was amazing. It's funny though. My father is a philosophy teacher and I had philosophy in the university. But I never really understood why should I learn philosophy in the first place. It always seemed very kinda wise and not understandable. Although I know all the names from my childhood 😅 And the thing you sad about it all being interconnected with the views of the modern world, seems so obvious now, that I don't understand how could I not get it. And now the phrase of Newton really makes sense (about the shoulders of Giants). As a physicist i was saying to myself "dude, what Giants, you started all of this mess, haloo". And now I get it. Actually it comes down to all of the cultural stuff. History obviously, art. No one really cares about the "battle something" or paintings or music without a context of it being an influential to all of the art, history etc. Its not just interesting. It helps. At this point of life I'm on a kind of a hard place. I've moved from "Mother Russia" (🤣😅) to home of all Jews (Israel) and I have to do stupid jobs after working in the physics laboratory in Russia becouse of the language. And it really helps to have a piece of thought at the day. This thing really saves me in a way. Thank you very much. Love.

Just subscribed after a recommendation from a friend - love it! Please ignore if you've already done it but could you possibly do an episode on Russian nihilism (particularly in the 1860s?) Thanks

Mr. West's summary of Deleuze commenting on how one might live - always in motion, the experiment not necessarily presaging results and so on, as well as plane of immanence - reminds me an awful lot of the TARDIS. The darn thing is always in motion, never sure where it'll end up, and its drivers are constantly seeing new worlds and experimenting, not to mention that their identities are never quite fixed. Anyway! Lovely series, Philosophize This.

New subscriber here. In the episode on the logical positivists You mentioned the importance of the late work of Heidegger and Wittgenstein. As the episode on this topic will not be made in the near future could You recommend any good introductions to the work of late Heidegger?

Izaac Garmey

Hi Stephen thanks for the email about the new arc. I have been wondering where you were going to go next and am not disappointed by your response 😀

Tony Ivanova

I'd be glad if there was some logical scheme/ of all of the episodes with few words for each (names, dates, name of ideas +-). Yes, I realize that its a huge work. So that it would be easy to recall everything. Image it as a philosophy course questions for exam. And a second more easy request - the notes/plan as messy as it is that you make for an episode. It would be fun to see the process 💖

Noah Florague

So glad that I've got around to being a Patreon! Love your work Stephen, keep it up!!!

You are the best philosophy lecturer I heard since my very first professor, Dr. Davis, who asked as the very first question of the very first day, "what is reality?" It was then I became hooked. I stumbled into philosophy serendipitously because I was late for freshman registration and Phil 101 was the only choice available to me. Since then it has become a lifelong passion. At the tender age of 64 I am still happily searching for the answer to the good Doctor's question.

Mac Smith

Any plans for Stirner?

Evan

Pledged because of this series. You really stuck the landing with this episode!

Morten

Same here. The link between the 'machine', the rhizome and the 'how might one live' was tied togehter beautifully.

Long time fan of the show. Finally became a Patreon after this series. I'm always struck by the way you take extremely complex ideas and distill them down to a manageable narrative for laymen, without loosing too much nuance. Keep it up. All the best from the Netherlands.
