    S3 E6 The final one, a poem?

    This episode is a tribute to the whole journey of three seasons and a sign of gratitude to philosophy and of course all my patient and consistent listeners! It's also very personal as I have recited one of my pieces, and the only piece very inspired by philosophy! Hope you like it, art it is

    S3 E5 Hope pulls you back.

    This episode is a revamp version of S1 E5 'To Hope is to Dare'. Since then, my perspective has changed and hence this. I am literally bringing to you my weirdest philosophical thoughts, and this one is surely a risky domain to experiment with! But we can always try, so here it is, the hope-belief dichotomy!

    S3 E3 Subjecrifying Human Bodies as Objects!

    The value of a human life, if truly contemplated upon, isn't much! Resourcefullness, productivity, purpose, these are the only parameters of why a human is relevant! Isn't that pretty dystopin, though? Well, happy listening! References: 1. Squid Game, the show 2. 'Docile Bodies' ~Michel Foucault

    S3 E2 The Essence of Technology is Nothing Technological!

    Technology, an (un)intended necessity of our lives, must be talked about, and why not from a philosophical point of view! This will be a bit technical, so lend me your full seven minutes! References: 1. Martin Heidegger, The Question Concerning Technology 2. The Social Dilemma, a documentary 3. 21 Lessons of 21st Century, Yuval Noah Harari 4. Bertrand Stiegler, Technics and Time! Happy listening!

  6. S3 E1 The Atheism Test!

    S3 E1 The Atheism Test!

    Can you rationalize your faith? Kirkegaard says no! But do we not critically analyze our religions, especially in the times of globalization when we have better knowledge of the dynamics of oppression. Is it correct to play the faith card as a response then? Season 3 is all about contemplations like these, at the end of every episode, I will leave you with questions like these. Happy listening! The Atheism Test and the beginning and end are an analogy to the Machine test, The Imitation Game (Have you seen a more crazy fan?). And here are the references if any of you wish to chack out: Descartes, R. Discourse on Method, London: Penguin, 1968. (Chapters 1,2,4 and 5).  Spinoza: Ethics London: Penguin Classics, 2005 (Book 1 and 2).  Strickland, Lloyd. Leibniz's Monadology: A New Translation and Guide. Edinburgh, UK: Edinburgh University Press, 2014. Soren Kierkegaard. 2003. Essay 7: "Suspending the Ethical". "Provocations: Spiritual Writings of Kierkegaard", Compiled and Edited by Charles.E.Moore, The Bruderhof Foundation. Inc. Farmington, USA.  Chatterjee, Satishchandra. Dutta, Dhirendramohan. An Introduction to Indian Philosophy. Rupa Publications, 2018.  21 Lessons of 21st Century, Yuval Noah Harari.

    S2 E8 Are you emotionally aware?

    Its the final episode. Emotions are not seen in a very good way in our society, we embarrass people for their self-expression. And that results in a lot of chaos. Tune in to understand what Indian philosophy has for us and our emotions.

  8. S2 E7 Are women really weak?

    S2 E7 Are women really weak?

    When patriarchy exists everywhere, when our society is constructed on patriarchy, and in the favour of men, how can we expect science to not get infected by it. Here is a view of bodies, in the words of Nelly Oudshoorn, a feminist biologist. Biological determinism and its biased reality. If you want to know more, read 'Beyond the Natural Body'.
