-"God is dead and your cringe has killed him" You made me literally laugh out loud. It was a course, half bark, and into an empty field with none but my dogs to hear; but a laugh, nevertheless.

I tattooed "amor fati" on my body several years ago... I was grieving at the time, and I found the idea behind the words soothing. Great episode! Thank you!

Andrew W Haddad

Amor Fati == acceptance? Never read it that way before, but I like it.

Peter Yurkosky

Excellent episode. Captures not only the essence but also the passion in Nietzsche's work.

Naveen Mathew

Any chance you can also do episodes on Kierkegaard, I feel Neitzsche and Kierkegaard were both approaching the same ideas albeit from different points of view.

Whenever life gets too much, I always come back to Nietzsche.

Bill Duncan

Thank you for being such a dedicated and thought-provoking teacher.

Patrick Boylan

Is the Q&A available anywhere anyone?

Tyler B

This series may become my favorite over the deleuze/guattari series. Thank you!

Blake Lever

God is dead and your cringe has killed him. Pure comedy gold. Thanks for your continued work! Love the podcast

"The beauty of the rain is how it falls". from song by Dar Williams. If Nietzsche can find no better solution to our predicament than art. Who am I to argue.

Ethan Stein

you should read stephen's post for episode 158. He has very understandable reasons to hold back on offering the opinions that many are requesting. It exposes him in new ways that are difficult to control. I think we should debate among ourselves here. That way he does not have to distract himself from his main effort, but maybe we can help each other. Of course that is possible to be fraught as well, but I think we could handle it without him being inconvenienced.

Diegakker

You cannot go wrong with Nietzsche! :)

Is there anyone out there who is a bit versed in eastern religion who would be interested in comparing amor fati with eastern concepts of acceptance/love of fate. Any interesting differences or similarities?

Justin Kollinger

Logged into Patreon for the first time in ages to ask this same question! I'd love to see a discussion of this and/or the apparent similarities and differences between eastern philosophical traditions (personally my interest is in Buddhism) and existentialist philosophies.

What is the dilemma he is talking about when he talks about the value of honesty?

Alexander Elbittar

It is the is a dilemma that the value of honesty can face against other values. For example, if a Nazi agent comes to your home chasing Jews and they ask you for information. In the spirit of being consistent with honesty, you would be willing to expose the Jewish refugee by sacrificing other values, such as compassion.

Jordan Wilson

Any idea on the next episode? I’m refreshing every day! 😅

Woah, I just finished Sean Carroll’s Mindscape podcast with Leidy Klotz ep. 162…it was all about subtraction rather than adding things to life.

Sarah

This episode radically changed my perspective on the way I practice "radical acceptance" in the best way. Thank you for all you do!
