Episode 178: Nietzsche as Social Critic: “Twilight of the Idols” (Part Two)

from The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast · host Mark Linsenmayer

Continuing on Nietzsche's 1888 book. Is there any ground from which we could judge life as a whole to be good or bad? Is N. more about saying "yes" to life or saying "no" to all the numerous things that piss him off? We also talk Becoming, whether producing great art is more important than being nice to everyone, and whether Nietzsche is ultimately someone we'd want to hang around. End song: "Oblivion" by Tyler Hislop, as interviewed on Nakedly Examined Music #24. The post Episode 178: Nietzsche as Social Critic: “Twilight of the Idols” (Part Two) first appeared on The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast.
