The Philosophy of Danger!
In this episode, I explore the intricate relationship between genetic concerns and the desire for parenthood, responding to common listener inquiries about navigating these challenges. I discuss pro-natalism while addressing the risk of transmitting genetic issues, highlighting the difference between deductive and inductive reasoning in decision-making. Through relatable examples, I analyze how we assess risk when considering starting a family.
I critique contemporary media for its portrayal of instincts, arguing that it often undermines rationality. The conversation shifts to the nature of risk assessment, emphasizing that moral philosophy provides absolutes, but personal choices regarding known genetic issues require individual judgment. I share anecdotes to illustrate how love and support play pivotal roles in these difficult decisions. By the end of the episode, I aim to empower listeners with the understanding that they must navigate these complex choices thoughtfully and with self-awareness.

Healing the Is/Ought Dichotomy
22 July 2025
This lecture explores the is-ought dichotomy, analyzing David Hume's assertion that moral imperatives cannot be directly derived from factual statements. The speaker critiques the selective use of this principle in secular morality and legal contexts, arguing that moral judgments often reflect subjective views rather than objective truths. The discussion emphasizes that engagements in debate carry intrinsic ethical standards, suggesting that while strict derivation may be problematic, a shared understanding of moral imperatives can emerge within secular discourse, enriching the conversation around ethics.

DOES TWO AND TWO MAKE FOUR? Twitter/X Space
Friday Night Live 1 August 2025
In this episode, I explore philosophical inquiries that connect deeply with our lived experiences, focusing on consciousness, existence, and morality. We examine the relevance of these questions in our daily lives and challenge the tendency to stray into abstract theorization. Emphasizing the importance of moral frameworks, I distinguish between deviance and dissent in the context of societal behavior, reflecting on how these concepts apply in our current socio-political landscape. Throughout the discussion, I invite listeners to engage actively, sharing their thoughts to enrich our collective understanding. We conclude by affirming the power of individuals to redefine their identities and narratives, encouraging personal growth and the pursuit of truth and virtue in the face of life's complexities.
