    From 78 - 027 | Digital Cozy?

    In this episode of From78, I reflect on how place and technology shape the way we experience time and connection. Recording from my office before a day of clinical work, I think about the privilege of listening, the importance of “regular” places where relationships once accumulated, and how those spaces seem increasingly rare. Rather than simply criticizing technology, I explore a more balanced view—drawing on Marc Weidenbaum’s idea of being “digitally cozy”: staying engaged with books, walks, art, meals, and family while dialing back the constant churn of short-term online conversations. I also reflect on how meaningful relationships can form entirely through technologically mediated means, setting the stage for an upcoming interview that continues this conversation. 00:32 Introduction and Reflections on Being a Psychoanalyst02:16 Exploring the Concept of Place06:34 Technology’s Role in Social Interaction07:33 Insights from Disquiet.com11:53 Balancing Technology and Real Life16:44 Upcoming Interview and Conclusion

    From 78 - 025 | Camus, Kingsnorth - Connections to People, Place, Prayer, & Past

    In episode 025 of the 'From 78' podcast, the host reflects on the significance of maintaining routines and the therapeutic role of podcasting in organizing thoughts. The host discusses the challenges of a busy November travel schedule, which disrupted his usual podcast routine, leading him to deeper contemplation of how expressing his thoughts changes his relationship with them. Highlighting Albert Camus' 'Notebooks 1942-1951,' he explores the longing for places of informal social interaction and the creation of bonds outside structured environments. The episode also examines Paul Kingsnorth's idea of the 'four Ps' (People, Place, Prayer, Past) and their diminishing role in contemporary life, juxtaposed with the practical difficulties of reclaiming these elements without abandoning modern conveniences. The episode concludes with gratitude to listeners and a reflection on balancing the longing for a deeper connection with the practicalities of modern living. 00:32 Introduction and Podcast Update 01:54 The Importance of Podcasting in My Life 04:21 Reflecting on Inspirations and Ideas 08:45 Engaging with Albert Camus 12:00 Longing for Connection and Place 19:52 Paul Kingsnorth’s Four Ps 23:14 Modern Intelligence and Points of Reference 29:05 Concluding Thoughts and Farewell

    From 78 - 020 | The passage from an inheritor of the world to a stewarded of the world

    Episode Description: In this episode of his podcast, host Neil Gorman delves into the subjective experience of time and reflects on his own emotional and cognitive journey from youth to adulthood. He discusses the shift from anger and judgment in his younger years to a more compassionate and understanding outlook as he grew older. Neil revisits previous themes, references the poem 'The Prophet' by Kahlil Gibran, and shares insights about the natural progression of becoming a steward of the world. He also discusses the contrasting paths people may take as they age—either moving towards compassion or becoming increasingly bitter. Join Neil as he explores the complexities of time, growth, and the importance of compassion. Warning: This episode is a self-referential reflection, where I revisit some of the themes from prior episodes. It is very rambly, so if you like that kind of thing, you'll like this one. And, if you don't like rambling episodes, you should probably skip this one. Themes & Returning Themes:  Dwelling in the house of Tomorrow when you're young, and moving out into the world of the present.The shift from being one who is going to inherit the world to someone who has inherited the world and is now a steward of that world.The loss of youth, the future, a large stack of tomorrows.... This makes some people soften and become more compassionate, and others harden and become bitter and brittle. Referenced:  The Prophet, by Kahlil GibranF78 Episode 015 Nick Cave (Faith, Hope, & Carnage; The Red Hand Files) F78 Episode 017 F78 Episode 018
