Very bad wizards is a podcast with the philosopher my dad and the psychologist dave pisarro, having an informal discussion about issues in science and ethics. Please note that the discussion contains bad words that i'm not allowed to say, and, knowing my dad, some very inappropriate jokes. If you are trying to be hurt, you're doing a good jobma, very bad.
David and Tamler dive into Sigmund Freud’s world of unconscious drives, death instincts, and thwarted incestuous urges in his classic text “Civilization and its Discontents.” If society has made so much progress, why are human beings perpetually dissatisfied? Can religion help us or is it a big part of the problem? What’s really going on when you piss on a fire to put it out? Also: how seriously should we take Freud today given some of his wackier ideas? And is he a psychologist, a philosopher, or something else entirely?
Plus we select the finalists from a huge list of suggested topics for the Patreon listener-selected episode!
