Philosophical Essays & Nihilism | Readings From The Road

We're back from travelling, wiser & thankfully not sad about it.In this special episode we are covering 3 books of essays/philosophical investigations by written by 3 authors in the 20th century. The books themselves are 'What Does It All Mean?' by Thomas Nagel, 'What Is Man & Other Essays' by Mark Twain & 'The Foundation Pit' by Andrey Platonov. All 3 books question meaning and have a tendency towards indulging in nihilism.If you got value from the podcast please provide support back in any way you best see fit!Timeline:(00:00:00) Intro(00:02:53) What Does It All Mean? - Thomas Nagel(00:07:52) What Is Man & Other Essays - Mark Twain(00:19:55) The Foundation Pit - Andrey Platonov(00:34:00) Value 4 Value(00:35:49) Coming Up Connect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/Xs9DjsurFqTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcastsValue 4 Value Support:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcast
