Today I'm joined by G.P. Xavier and Aron van Os to discuss Friedrich Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra". G.P. has his own channel on which he produces dense content about different philosophers, ideas, and he hosts conversations as well. Aron is a philosophy teacher at the University of Amsterdam, and he did his masters thesis on Nietzsche. This conversation gave a me lots of food for thought and it will be continued!

On this episode, I speak to my father, Bas van Os, and Stephan, from Charlie's Little Corner. The three of us have a total of two PhD's (you can guess who's slacking), and I always love talking to the both of them. I think the dynamic between Bas and Stephan affords great insight, as they both possess a wealth of knowledge and the ability to listen deeply. We discussed alignment (and misalignment) of the body, soul, and spirit, the recent festival Stephan and Bas both spoke at, and much more. Please enjoy!

Sevilla King is a therapist who runs a Youtube channel called "A Quality Existence" where she comments on the discussion around the meaning crisis as well as doing a lot of work around Robert Pirsig's books and ideas, the most famous of which is "Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". Today we discuss Sevilla's journey in the last couple of years, learning from Jordan Peterson, Jonathan Pageau, and John Vervaeke, and I ask her a bunch of questions about Robert Pirsig's ideas.

I always enjoy speaking to my friend Scott, who thinks deeply and always gives me new topics to explore with him. Today we discuss values, and in particular Scott relates values to depth, with an image that we try to dive deeper into today. Please enjoy!

Today G.P. Xavier comes back to the channel once more. G.P. hosts his own channel on which he makes, in my view, some really high value philosophy content. It deserves more viewers so please find a link to it below. This specific conversation is inspired by Max Scheler's hierarchy of values and the video he did about it.

I had a really good time talking to Jake Roque yesterday. I connected with him over Twitter a couple of months ago, and I really enjoy what he posts so I decided to reach out. We discussed his background, writing poetry, the importance of meaning, and much more. I was sad to only speak to him for an hour, and I hope to have him on again in the future.
