The Barbaric Impulse, Part I: How Understanding Human Desire Changes Everything

from Naming the Real Hosted by Brandon Cook

This episode launches a new series within the Naming the Real Podcast, which is an exploration of the nature of human desire. In this episode, we explore the core human desire, which we call love—the desire to know and be known with affection and without fear. And we explore the implications of human desire, because human motivation is quite simple: we act in pursuit of love or in pursuit of power. Understanding these dynamics can make us better students of human nature and, ultimately, better human beings.
