Episode notes

The speaker was heavily influenced by the French philosopher Albert Camus, who explored philosophical thinking on existence and concluded that the fundamental question is whether to commit suicide in the face of life's meaninglessness. Choosing not to commit suicide leads to embracing life as play, as described by James Carse, who distinguished between finite games with winners and losers and infinite games focused on continuous play. The speaker reconciles their existence by embracing consciousness and the experience of being.
