John Kaag and his magnificent book, Hiking With Nietzsche, is the subject of this episode of the podcast.

The book is a decompression on two journeys, separated by 15 years. John journeyed to Sils Maria - this beautiful mountainous village in Switzerland where Nietzsche published, what some would claim as his masterpiece, a fictional title - Thus Spoke Zarathustra - which is, of course, an allegory on becoming who you are.

In this podcast with John Kaag On Hiking With Nietzsche, you can expect to hear about some of the following. …

How philosophers romanticise to the point of worship, walking.
Nietzsche being misinterpreted later in life.
The impossible trade-off between fostering a family and pursuing the individual path.
Nietzsche's commentary on killing ones own father - metaphorically of course.
And finally - nothing to serious, just how John responds to being asked what his life purpose is
