Podcasts Are Proving That There Is an Appetite for That

No politics, no metaphysics, no grand narratives, as this week, and for the following weeks, the Pill Pod is going back to the things themselves. That's right—we are talking phenomenology. Our touchstone text will be Phenomenology of Perception by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, but we do not expect to stay within the lines. Today, we try to get a handle on "lifeworld", "horizon", and a few of MMP's particular goals as a phenomenologist. If this goes well, after a few weeks we hope to help you feel less insane as denizens of Feedworld. If there are sections of text attached to the public episodes (as there is for this ep), you'll be able to find them attached on Patreon, EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT A PATRON.
