I first came across Nietzsche in college when i was a prescription drug addict but also very much into philosophy and I instantly fell in love with his ideas in such a romantic way... his works have truly abetted the growth and development of my psychological state in such a therapeutic way.. since then I have overcome my addiction which has scorned me years. I really owe a lot to this man and he will always be a father figure for me. I have such an affinity for him and his ideas that I even try to criticize them as often as i could simply for the sake of being certain that I genuinely do agree with him rather than just blindly accepting his ideas because I know thats quintessential to his philosophy.
A good guru does not make a disciple out you. He gives a taste of what freedom is.A disciple does not hold a guru in captivity by not using the freedom to be, and instead hovering around for another dose of insight. Insight comes maybe ones to even that guru and disciples corrupt the guru for insisting that there is more from where that first insight came from. Grow your seed now and aim to be a one time guru to another suffering human being. Build psychologically if possible to the highest ever known but don’t be tied down by physical growth. That can be destroyed in seconds even though it may have take for ever to bring about. Look at Russia and Ukraine. The psychological strngth in those communities is what must keep them intrested in living.
This show is fantastic. The intellectual honesty, consistency, and lack of trying to force your own virtues makes for such an objective and engaging session. Definitely will be contributing on patreon, please continue these.
Incredible. Your precise articulation of Nietzche's thoughts have allowed me to answer questions I've had about the role of religion in society for years. Thank you Stephen, much love.
Every evening for the last year, episodes on Kant, Nietzsche and Spinoza are my favourites. Thanks for putting these rather abstract concepts into such a relatable perspective!
Listening to your Spotify podcasts at my bedtime everyday. It really fells ecstatic to go through every philosophy and hand pick the good that suit my daily moods.
Well, sitting down to start this series with a couple beers and a glass of whiskey was a bummer. Thanks for killing the buzz Nietzsche 😜 Love the podcast
Fantastic, precise, concise, condense and informative. That's what we need and that's what this generation of TikTok crap and other social media needs, instead of wasting their time with a very stupid unhealthy stuff.
I love the way you teach! You help to explain Nietzsche with a spark of spirit that motivates me to learn more! There are so many dull professors out there who are boring in their presentations! But you do an outstanding analysis! I love Nietzsche!
Wow. Stephen. You rock! Thank you. You „enlightened“, enriched and widened my horizon - especially on the topic of „envy“ ... It‘s the first time, I heard it like this... Envy as a tool/a hint that can unveil some more about you... like, what you really want (and don‘t have ... Envy, as a possibility to show you, what is important to you... Envy, as a reflection if your needs, cravings, yearnings... Envy, as a mirror - tool of your thoughts, your “illusions”, your visions, your likes... Envy as a possibility to help you, dis-illusion yourself about what you imagined to be like (but are not or are very differently than you display it to others or even make yourself want to believe...). Well, you see how you inspire me to dive in deeper ... and sorry for my very restricted capacity to put my word down in English (German is my mothertongue). Thanks again, Stephen. You are awesome.
Hey Stephen, I'm a long time listener and a real fan of the show. I happen to be reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra now and really enjoy your thoughts. Thank you sincerely from Tallahassee, FL.
Have you considered doing a podcast on Carl Jung? I was obsessed with Nietzsche and wondered if anybody sought out to build off some of his philosophy/psychology. I soon came to understand that Jung tried to do just that. He dedicated most of his life to addressing the problems that Nietzsche laid out in his works.
At 19:10, when Nietzsche speaks of envy, isn't he looking at the idealistic form of envy like Plato's "tree of treeness"? In the end we can't get away from ideals, perhaps because there is something lurking out there?
Welllll the envy part im not so sure is self taught. I think the media and all other “cultural engineers” have taken envy into consideration as well as our pack mentality, and used that to keep us on the hamster wheel of wanting to have things this person does or looks like the other. Although I do agree envy can be used or should be used in a way to turn your self around but I think we first need to figure out if that’s actually something we desire or just the image we think we should achieve.
I love these episodes, I subscribed and noticed these started around episode #072 or so. Where are the rest of the episodes! I noticed in part 4 on Nietzsche you said something about posting a video 3 years ago was it on this channel or another?
From what I think nietzsche was saying, he saw that we created this ideal world and then an ethics reflective of this ideal world to essentially escape the actual world we live in. He called this ideal ethics a slave ethics, because it stifled individuals from running towards their personal ethics that would drive them to Knowledge and escaping from that mental slavery imposed upon the masses. Christian thought was a slave thought, because it required individuals to erase their Being and assume the Being that Christianity saw to exist. He felt masses were subject to privilege the ethic and reality Christianity saw as truth. When he spoke about the rich, the knowledgeable, he spoke on behalf of the german elites who were constantly scrutinized for not adhering to the german nationalist, parochial interests and ideas. He wanted to speak on behalf of germans who were advanced enough to resist the religious and social authoritarianism of his time. The idea of liberation from the late 19th century authoritarian thinking led him to write ethical, social, Political, religious Analyses that would undermine the forced and coercive regimes that mentally disabled masses from achieving their personal existence. It was like nietzsche felt people had to exist as if they were part of a group but individually non-existent themselves.
Marxism recognizes that no world is utopian and that even in communism there will be contradictions for society to resolve to create an even better society so that we may drive history. This by Marx's words is called negation-negation theory.
"God is DEAD !" (Nietzsche) "Nietzsche is dead !" (God) "How could God be dead ? God has NEVER lived ! Nietzsche, on the other hand, did !" (freely after Osho)
In regard of Nietzsche relation with alcohol, cant avoid feeling his childhood catholic influence being part of it. I mean, it is clearly a moral judgement, and moreover, a prejudice to say that alcohol consumption antagonices with philosophy or with being concious about your life. I mean, clearly if you are wasted theres little more than a toilet in your mind, but that doesnt mean that alcohol cannot have creative edges, or even just "fun" edges. And i dont think Nietzsche could have been against creative exploration or fun: thus, i cannot imagine him being a big drinker so to actually be aware of alcohol efects.
Rogan gets the credit for my being here also, as the next comment below states. I'm happy to find this knowing however I'll find problems with assumptions as I'm already doing. For one, a pretty quick patter of assumptions as the cliches' of provinciality is raced over but then I hear some criticism which I am carrying pass by and the irony follows leaving me with a bag of bricks to carry, I try and work this out and lose the thread of what I was looking into originally. As to proving God, can you prove there is no elephant in the room, you can prove one cannot be found and within reason even the absence using any modern method but ultimately with our knowledge of quantum findings of some unique findings you may not be able to prove anything forever in any one realm, thus there is no solid acceptance of our elephant not existing, no?
I am now severely dissatisfied with the nature of my existence, having never heard predatory buffalo sneaking up behind me. Are my ears defective? Are the buffalo really good hiders??? What is the meaning of all this?!?!?
If all standards are self defined; including Christianity, an imagined value structure of a true world, then every “best” version is equal. The issue for Nietzsche, imo, is two fold: 1) He fails to realize this of his own value structure, and 2) it offers no “why” reason other than living to live, which is, both in principle and fact, doomed; rearranging chairs on a sinking ship as fast as you can before you succumb to the depths.
You will never find deep fulfilment through envy of another's person or property.. Ironically the only 'ones' to be envied or rather copied are those who transcend ego.. Alcohol, cars, houses, attractive women and men are all open to shallow profit chasing advertising-all soulless and empty.. Nietzsche went nuts lets not forget..
Can I say I read someone talk about evolution and that to evolve such a delicate eye as the human eye, does not make sense from an evolutionary standpoint especially when of all the organs our eyes by far use the most energy to work. So I have spent many a night wondering about it.
@@GhGh-gq8oo I'm very interested in crispr and the mapping of the human genome, which does not prove anything about evolution in fact it raises the most important questions as key sequences look like they've been removed or tampered with suggesting we were created and not evolved at all.
Hello everyone. I just wanted to point out that the narrators first example is incorrect. The narrator says that humans don't sit there and think about stuff like their eyes and how they're made and how they function and all that stuff, because we have concrete evidence as to how our eyes work. Does the narrator not realize that it takes experimentation in order to figure things out like the human body?
Hello! This is super random but I just finished the show Evangelion and am wondering if by chance you had seen it, if so any comments on the philosophy in it?
I enjoyed this, but just wanted to point out that Marxism is not a "true world" theory. The point for Marxists is to change *this* world and make it better, not to seek a "superior" realm somewhere else. Also, most Marxists, and certainly Marx and Engels themselves, are explicitly anti-utopian. They think utopia is by definition unachieveable whereas a fairer, more equal and democratic society (obviously not "perfect") is entirely achieveable. So your remark was a bit misleading.
I can't help but notice that it is not Nietzsche himself that gives the "God is dead. And we have killed him." speech. Nietzsche puts those words in the mouth of a CLOWN, who is laughed at by the crowd because they, like me, don't see any problem. Speaking for myself, the problem _I_ see is that we are STILL cleaning up the mess left over from having involved gods where they don't belong, eg morality.
Yes, I see N's worldview ... surely makes sense ... and definitely an original thinker.... Again, though, he didn't walk the talk ... a provincial mama's boy.

you should do a duel episode on the allegory of the cave and the simulated reality hypothesis, just a thought love the content.
what a great suggestion, I second this...
awsome!
So you mean Plato and Descartes?
As someone who abstains from alcohol having never tried it before, I really felt that last example hit home.
Rogan and Russell, their conversational subjects, are so mentally stimulating! Addicting! Thanks for bringing me here. I think?!?...
It fits for social media perfectly...
Hey Stephen, I'm a long time listener and a real fan of the show. I happen to be reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra now and really enjoy your thoughts. Thank you sincerely from Tallahassee, FL.
i have been searching for a good philosphy podcast for a while. this episode was great mate. good luck
A very comprehensive explanation on some of Nietzsche’s core points!
Good thing I have ears. I wouldn’t have heard that buffalo sneaking up behind me.
That never seeing a perfect triangle in nature was very interesting
This was brilliant ! Freakin love this guy
10.20 - Well nietzche wud say 'Yeah' !! HAHAHA
i dont know if you still read these comments but you are the by far the greatest philosphy youtube /podcast Ever ........thank you

Was perhaps Nietzsche the most interesting of all philosophers?
but have you met Socrates?
Yes. He stands tall above all others. Hume was pretty based as well tho
Your videos are absolutely fantastic, thank you for making them
Amazing video! Keep up the good work 👌 this is my favourite podcast at the moment
Stopped drinking aby alcohol at all at 17 because of this exact reason.
Perfect definition
Bookmark form me: the envy part from 18:00 to the end
Now I’m thinking about eyeballs.
hmmm a damning critique of alcohol! Makes you rethink all those beers
Finally, we did it boys. 90 episodes deep and we've reached Nietzsche!
