So great to hear from you, I'm glad things are looking up for you! I'm currently on the Frankfurt school episodes and you are blowing my mind!

Glad you are doing well, we were worried!

Thank you for the ep. It says in the email it's patron-only, but it's also on Spotify. Not that I care, just mentioning.

Just wanted the update on my health to be for patrons only. Might start adding more personal info in the future and am testing to see if it works.

Madani

Glad you're doing well.

Hunter Putnam

Great episode. Glad to have you back! Can't wait for more! We appreciate everything you do

Monica O'Neill

Thank you for enriching my life, Stephen. I hope your health continues to improve; you are a much needed diversion in this crazy world.

Tiara

Have just been reading Bergson recently! This is great!

Cal Enti

Be well. Thank you so much for your work.

Samuel Otis

Thanks Stephen, take good care of your health, I prefer more sporadic episodes if that means you're staying healthy!

Drew

Another fantastic, thought-provoking episode. Also, I just went back and listened to one of my all-time favorite episodes: #063... Kant pt 8 - Limits of Knowledge. It is outstanding. Thanks for all that you do, Stephen!

Nate Mathewson

Appreciate the update as always, thanks for your hard work. Be well homie <3

Brad Hanney

This episode was definitely worth the wait. Thank you, Stephen.

Brandon Torrigino

Happy to hear you’re doing well! I was getting worried. I was just about to do another full re-listen. Glad to see I get to start a new episode instead.

Berk Hülagü

Glad to hear that your health is getting better, your work makes my life enriched.

I would love to hear your thoughts on laughter in people with genetic conditions such as Angelman syndrome or autism. My brother has AS and you can learn a little more on this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5J0kvFSTtA though the most predominant feature of someone with AS is uncontrollable laughter. What makes this so unusual is that people with AS will never speak in their life - they have cognitive function but language is completely different to that of what we typically experience. My brother often laughs in a cartoon at the moment before the punchline. Like he can somehow anticipate the action despite not understanding what is being said. Alas, if you know anyone I could look at further to understand laughter in this respect, I would be very grateful. (also thanks for all the great lessons, i really look forward to these eps)

Mansah

We‘re relieved you are alright!🤗

Joe Beaulieu

Excited that you're back and well. You may enjoy this. Cinefix picks a topic, picks various cuts, discusses a bunch of movies that fit and then pick the best. If you want ignore the top 10'ish. This one talks about funniest moments in movies and uses the theories of humor to discuss what I called "cuts." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z5SsDEWWIU&t=4s

I have just finished listening to every episode twice! Thanks for the work, Stephen. I'm now reading Being and Time and Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Your show rekindled my interest in philosophy that I largely abandoned after college.

Nicolò Paternoster

uhmmmmmm now you made me refresh this page twice a day since September 23d, looking for part 2

Brian Skillin

Glad you’re back, Mr West. Look forward to more quality philosophy from you, Sir.

Cristi

I really missed your voice, man you make life more enjoyable and stony times more introspective, hope you get well soon!

Felix from Panama

I wish your name was MAC so you could get back with "Return of the mac" as your intro music.

Ron Satija

Take care of yourself for sure but get us pt.2 sometime. I have missed this! A pt.2 of Habermas with more on communicative ethics would be fun, too. I feel like knowledge of that is sorely needed in the political sphere!

Mikhail Ratner

Hey my man, please get those episodes out!!! I am sure I am not the only one to say: I need 30 mins of Steven West every 2 weeks and not once every few months! ;) In these times (where I do not see many people) it is always heart-warming to hear your voice telling me a bit about the world what I did not know before. Wish you all the best!!

Charlie B

Take care of yourself! We will be here waiting patiently.

Has your perspective shifted as a result of the research you've done in the show? Are there any glaring examples where you came in with one idea regarding a philosopher or concept and left holding another perspective after the research?
