    JUST FYI POD: IDEAS: "Our Ten Favorite Works of Philosophy: #7"

    The main task of JUST FYI POD: IDEAS' second season is to discuss "Our Ten Favorite Works of Philosophy." On today's episode, I begin with a discussion of THE STRUCTURE OF SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTIONS (1962), written by the decorated American philosopher of science Thomas S. Kuhn (1922-96). Meanwhile, my cohost Clark Elliston turns to the French critic and philosopher Michel Foucault (1926-84) and his celebrated 1975 study DISCIPLINE AND PUNISH: THE BIRTH OF THE PRISON (Surveiller et punir: Naissance de la prison). Both of these texts were considered significant, if also potentially transgressive, in their own eras. But it may be that they matter even more today!

    JUST FYI POD: CULTURE: "Decision 2024 Postmortem + Election Categories"

    Looking for more Election 2024 coverage? Interested in a point of view that does not coincide with Twitter/X sensationalism or MSM banality? Look no further than Just FYI Pod: Culture.! On today's episdode, Amy Welborn and I take a break from our usual content and offer an analysis of Tuesday's United States presidential election. But this is not just any analysis. Instead of prattling on about "Decision 2024," Amy and I have pithily subdivided our thoughts into various categories, focusing on the people and issues that made this election cycle particularly memorable. Topics include: Butler, PA, Joe Rogan, Ann Selzer, "Joy," French Fries, squirrels, Anthony Fauci, Cornpop, and the 1986 movie Hoosiers.

    JUST FYI POD: IDEAS: "Our Ten Favorite Works of Philosophy: #9"

    The main task of Just FYI Pod: Ideas' second season is to discuss "Our Ten Favorite Works of Philosophy." On today's episode -- which might very well be called "Nietzsche Day" on the pod -- my cohost Clark Elliston and I discuss two key texts by the (in)famous German thinker Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900). After a mutual examination of the background to Nietzsche's authorship, Clark offers an assessment of Nietzsche's 1883 opus Thus Spoke Zarathustra: A Book for All and None (Also sprach Zarathustra: Ein Buch für Alle und Keinen). Next, I follow with a discussion of Nietzsche's polemical 1895 book The Antichrist (Der Antichrist), which puts forward Nietzsche's key concept of the "revaluation of all values" (Umwertung aller Werte).
