  1. Human or Useful? The Crisis of Human Dignity.

    Human or Useful? The Crisis of Human Dignity.

    Are we valued for who we are — or only for what we produce? In this episode, we explore one of the most urgent questions of our time: has human dignity become conditional? From constitutional law to Christian theology, from Kantian philosophy to modern surveillance capitalism, this podcast examines whether human worth is still grounded in being — or quietly reduced to productivity, autonomy, and usefulness. We analyze: The theological foundation of dignity (Imago Dei) Kant’s distinction between price and dignity The role of human dignity in constitutional law The impact of digital culture and data-driven systems Why burnout, anxiety, and identity crises may be anthropological symptoms If dignity is intrinsic, it cannot be earned or revoked. If it is functional, it can disappear the moment performance ends. This episode challenges modern assumptions and offers a profound framework for reclaiming the ontological foundation of human worth.

    Attention Is the New Soul & Distraction Is the New Addiction.

    Attention is the new soul — and it’s being stolen. In a world engineered for distraction, your attention has become the most valuable currency on Earth. This episode explores how modern technology, algorithms, and constant stimulation are reshaping the human mind, weakening memory, fragmenting identity, and silently eroding our ability to think deeply, love sincerely, and live with meaning. Blending philosophy, theology, psychology, and real-life examples, this podcast reveals a powerful truth: whoever controls your attention is shaping your desires — and whoever shapes your desires is shaping your destiny. If you’ve ever felt mentally tired, emotionally empty, unable to focus, or spiritually disconnected, this episode will give you clarity, language, and practical steps to reclaim your inner life. Guard your attention. It’s the doorway to your soul.

  3. DESTINY or CHOICE? Who Writes Your Life?

    DESTINY or CHOICE? Who Writes Your Life?

    Do human beings have a destiny — or do we create our own fate? This episode explores one of the oldest and most intellectually charged questions in philosophy, theology, and psychology: is your life predetermined, or is it shaped by your choices? Drawing from classical thinkers like Aristotle and the Stoics, modern existential philosophy, and practical psychological insights, we examine the real structure of human freedom. Some parts of life are undeniably given: your birth, your body, your family, your nation, your era, and your circumstances. Yet within those constraints, your habits, character, decisions, and interpretation of suffering can radically transform your future. Through practical examples — from education and relationships to trauma, discipline, and purpose — this episode offers a balanced and deeply human answer: destiny is real, but it is not absolute. You may not choose your starting point, but you do choose your direction. And direction, repeated over time, becomes what most people call fate. If you’ve ever wondered whether your life is guided by a higher plan, shaped by your own will, or built through invisible daily choices, this episode will challenge you — and clarify you.

  4. Your Calendar Is Artificial — How Humans Drifted from Natural Time

    Your Calendar Is Artificial — How Humans Drifted from Natural Time

    What if the way we measure time is fundamentally wrong? In this episode, we explore a rarely questioned truth: the modern calendar is not aligned with human biology, lunar cycles, or natural rhythms. Long before clocks and deadlines, humans lived by the moon — a 28-day cycle that still governs tides, fertility, menstruation, pregnancy, and circadian rhythms. So why do we live by a 12-month calendar when human gestation follows 9–10 lunar cycles? Why do months like October, November, and December carry numerical names that no longer match their position in the year? And how did political power reshape time itself? This episode examines how Roman authority, solar calendars, and administrative control replaced natural cycles with artificial structures — and how this shift still affects our psychology, productivity, and sense of meaning today. We also explore the deep irony of modern fear around artificial intelligence, asking whether humanity has already been living inside artificial systems for centuries — long before machines became “intelligent.” This is not an argument against technology, but a philosophical reflection on forgotten rhythms, biological time, and the cost of living outside the original circle of human life.

  5. You’ve Been Using These Quotes Wrong Your Whole Life

    You’ve Been Using These Quotes Wrong Your Whole Life

    We repeat quotes every day without realizing most of them are only half the story. “Blood is thicker than water.” “Curiosity killed the cat.” “Jack of all trades, master of none.” But what if the part we don’t hear is the part that actually changes how we live? In this video, we unpack 13 famous sayings people think they understand — and reveal their full meanings, why they were shortened, and how half-truths quietly shape our relationships, work, faith, curiosity, and decisions. This isn’t motivation. It’s not self-help. It’s about noticing how simplified wisdom drains depth from life, and what happens when you start looking for the complete story instead. If you’ve ever felt: loyal to things that hurt you afraid to ask questions pressured to specialize too early tired of surface-level “truths” this conversation is for you. Watch to the end — one of these proverbs may explain something you’ve felt for years but couldn’t name.

    AUGUSTINE ON WAR & PEACE

    In this episode, we dive deep into the thought of Saint Augustine, exploring how peace, order, and law become essential instruments of social harmony in times of crisis. Drawing from Book XIX of the De Civitate Dei, we uncover Augustine’s revolutionary idea of peace as the “tranquillitas ordinis” — not simply the absence of conflict, but the presence of a just and harmonious order. Guided by the insights of Professor Juan Antonio Cabrera Montero, this episode unpacks: The evolution of the concept of peace in Greek, Roman, and biblical cultures Augustine’s nine definitions of peace — from the inner self to the cosmic order The distinction between human law and divine law. Why justice is the foundation of any real society Augustine’s theory of the just war, and why war must aim at restoring peace The role of order (ordo amoris, ordo pacis) in shaping ethical and political life The necessity of interior peace for building authentic social peace A rich, accessible, and thought-provoking conversation for anyone interested in philosophy, theology, political theory, law, or the roots of Western thinking. Perfect for students, scholars, and curious listeners who want to understand how Augustine’s vision still speaks to a world marked by conflict, inequality, and cultural transformation. 👉 Follow the podcast for more deep dives into philosophy, history, and the ideas that shaped civilization.
