123: Dualism, Descartes, Plato, and The Mind

Talk Back to MeWe stand on the shoulders of Giants, who have gone before us, as men, just like us, to try to understand what it true and what it means for a thing to be true. For Descartes, his Meditations on First Philosophy includes the line that divides the mind from the body. Since it is possible that our senses to be tricked, it is possible that all of our senses can be tricked at the same time. If that is true, how can we even know that we exist. And from this we get the line, "I think, therefore I am."But this isn't the first time mankind has concerned itself with the mind-body distinction. Plato and his influence also depends on there being a difference between the idea of a thing, and the physical thing we interact with. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

122: Euthyphro Dilemma and the Gods

Talk Back to MeThe question asked by Socrates gets to the heart of how we think about who or what God is. Many of the arguments regarding God falter over childish descriptions, evoking imaginary characters, judgemental shirtless men, and an abundance of the word "empathy." So when Socrates asks about the relationship between the gods and goodness or holiness or piety, he forces the reader to sort out whether their idea of God is bound by some other force, and the consequences of such ideas. And how we think about God impacts how we think about goodness, and in turn, morality, which, when it comes to potentially taking life, is something to take very seriously. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

120: Ethan Walters on How to [Not] get Killed by the FBI

Talk Back to MeThe events that took place in our recent history draw attention once again that there's a difference between the ideal when it comes to law enforcement, and our current reality. And although the political battle is still making hay for this side or that, we as a community have some things to discuss when it comes to the recent shooting of a Utah citizen.Even if it's not as simple as the pundits make it out to be, event of this sort have ramifications, even if it's not in the way our cultural detractors would like it to be. More importantly, we as the community ought come together on this matter, if not to bring up moral and legal challenges against those responsible for what took place, than certainly about what it means to look out for one another. Ethan "Gypsy" Walters has brought art and inspiration to a whole wave of the new Gun Culture, and joins this episode for his third appearance. To check out his work head to the House of Wolves.

118 Pt 2: Literally Me Explained with Collin Underdahl

Talk Back to MeThe meme-ability of Blade Runner 2049 serves as a testament to the its grasp on the human condition at this time. The parallels between the film and the experiences of men concludes in a tragedy, and not one without consequences. If the Literally Me meme continues to live on, as men depart from the emptiness of the prior cultural movement. As the New Atheist ideology steadily collapses under the weight of it's own demands, culture is returning to a pursuit in a life worth living, a precedent antithetical to the rote hedonism of the 90's and early 2000's. However, the need for greater can lead to dark roads, and pseudo religions and the worship of the state offer temptation.

119: Clairvoyance and Achievement

Talk Back to MeThe pursuit of Knowledge is its own reward, or so the saying goes. And although this saying might have some immediate motivating value for those engaging in academics, it rarely receives the treatment it deserves. Clairvoyance is one of those words that, like enlightenment, receives more abuse than proper use. Particularly from hippies, fools, and pseudo-intellectuals. Alone, it comes to no good end, and might be a curse. A great terror which haunts me is the fear of one day being granted the ability to see clearly, only to discover that I have intentionally blinded myself to avoid the tasks set before me. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

116: Beau Doboszenski on The Casualty of Trust

Talk Back to MeBeau Doboszenski returns to address what might be the greatest casualty of the contemporary world: Trust. While it goes hand-in-hand with the Post-Information Age, this subject looks differently for those inside the group, than it does for those outside. As we see trust breakdown between the citizens and the government, we are also witnessing a dissolving of trust within Gun Culture. The first may be expected given the infringements, but with each new day comes a new reason to be skeptical of even those in our midst.  Follow Beau and Defensive Mindset Training on Instagram at @dmtdefendersCheck out their library list of drills and training at defensivemindsettraining.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc
