Thank you for making the show possible. 🙂
Please make another podcast on this!
“I had to eat my pet chicken who was livin’ in my suitcase with me” 😂 this had me laughing too hard
Love this. Been waiting on the Guy Debord episode. Now all I'm waiting for is a Alfred Jarry episode.
Been waiting a long time also
More Debord, Baudrillard, Becker and Camus please.
Also, Mark Fisher.
Just finished listening to all 171 podcasts. They were terrific (nearly all 😉)! Pretty nice of you to post these for free; they surely took a lot of time and thought. Bravo!
The first few paragraphs of Debord's book completely relates to this modern society.....like it could have written last week....amazing. Atomized population.
I love this book
Nobody scratches my philosophical itch better than Philosophize this!
This episode was enlightening. Keep on the excellent work
More of this topic please! Fascinating but it ended way too soon!
I've listened to this about 3 times over the past 2 weeks. I can't seem to find other people speaking on this work and would love more episodes on this.
Thank you for all the great work.
You can't find anyone speaking on this popular text by GUY DEBORD? You can't be looking around much at all...
Get people to watch the movie Nope with you and then slip in Guy Debord talking points afterward
@@HS-ie8tj haha you're right, i just meant people who would expand on what Stephen has covered so far. Like a lecture series of some sort. Most are just 20-minute book reviews that dont have much depth.
@@tysonasaurus6392 😂 good idea
@@sinqobilebandile6558 Is this a joke? Read the damn book.
What a great video! Good job, Stephen. Please, feel free to make longer episodes! 🙏🏿
Love this episope been rewinding for 2hours now. Please make more episodes on Guy Deboord
Great episode! Nothing epitomizes the society of the spectacle more in our modern age than 'social' media and the monkey wrench it has thrown into human relations. One wonders how much more grotesque it can get.. metaverse? 🤷🏻♂️
Thank you and my thanks to you are sincere and have nothing to do with the spectacle in any way, shape, or form whatsoever!
Fascinating episode. Thank you.
Fascinating dive into something we all take for granted for the most part. Great content.
Thanks for another. Spent many hours driving up and down the country listen to your cast.
Thank you for covering Debord! I didn't very much understand commodity fetishism but Debord was able to fill this gap, in a very itch in the brain sort of way.
Now how can I find a way out of this place...
Great episode! Thank you! Would love to hear the next episode on him!
Just listened to this on Spotify. What a great episode. Thanks, Steven!
This is an epic content! Kudos! It deserves to be heard by the people of the entire world as it is highly relevant to what's happening around! This would even make farther reach if there is some sort of video with it! I hope you make more of Guy Debord!
Am amazed, keep educating and philosophizing the great works and thoughts...
The alienation is very apparent in a company environment. Where your employer tries to limit your knowledge of the business operations to the bare minimum that the require of you to perform your defined function.
This also counts for legal rights, health care benefits and even political input.
What an excellent episode. Please do another on this topic
As always, your uploads on philosophy are hugely welcomed. Thanks You 🙏🏻
Super important episode! Thank you!
TikTok and IG are good and will support any way we can. We love you!! Thank you for creating these podcasts!
I would love to hear about this “not a way out but a way through” idea from Debor. Unless it was mentioned so the listener’s peaked interest would make him do his own research on the topic. Thank you for your time and skills to make this video.

Hello, Thanks a lot. You already made my entire week. I appreciate it.😊
Good shit. I look forward to more.
Listen to all of his episodes. The lastest one is just beautiful. Wish he expands on Ortega y gasset's philosophy.
I wonder if--like the endless stream of spectacles/illusions that consume and effectively limit so many of us these days, & increasingly so--i wonder if the most effective means of transcending the spectacle might involve our making use of tactics that likewise fail to endure, but on purpose. In other words, embracing spontaneity in a way that fights power. Foucault's "always letting each other in, whatever that looks like, even when it becomes dangerous" would probably be a good place to start. What do you think?
Thanks, contemplating the spectacle right now watching this video, but every so slightly more aware of what I'm doing than usual.
Great video!
Thank you for this episode. More stuff on Debord will always be appreciated. I hope that one day you can cover the work of Jacques Ellul (The Technological Society/System/Bluff trilogy in particular) as his focus on technological development and its impact on our lives is very much connected (and in some ways precedes) the ideas of Debord and Baudrillard.
Check out technology as symptom and dream by Robert Romanyshyn!
Thanks Bigtime!!!
great stuff thanks! and i love the idea of debord going on tiktok
I love the newest modern stuff to help us understand 2023
C Wright Mills Elites and Imagination. :) ♡
Enjoyed this episode :)
The decline of local beat reporting is another example of news becoming increasingly superficial
Thanks mate
Very bold to assume everyone is unaware and unbothered
Pleaaaaaase do create another one!
Hi! I really enjoy your podcast, and I've been trying to find the page where I can sign in for the message to ger the reminder there's a new episode. I'd appreciate if you could tell me which is the link. For some reason it doesn't appear. (regards from Uruguay)
Sweet love me some Debord
More please
Regarding commodity fetishism and our uncompromising participation in the spectacle, couldn't we argue that something similar took place in history? Today it's commodities, a while ago it was land ownership, prior to that maybe physical strength or fertility... It seems to me that we always fetishised _something_ and participated in some kind of social construct, whatever the form it took.
this is a really great point.
i mean my perspective is that this "commodity fetishism" isnt really a modern issue. it seems to have been an issue for all (most?) of human history.
@@retlox224 That makes sense to me, too.
Commodity fetishism and our participation in the spectacle are not merely historical phenomena but intrinsic to capitalist society's development. While other social constructs and forms of fetishization have indeed existed in history, the spectacle represents a qualitatively different form of alienation and domination unique to capitalism; It means a totalizing system that subsumes all other forms of social construct and fetishization. Also, the historical forms of fetishization you mention are themselves symptoms of the broader process of commodification and spectacle, i.e the fetishization of physical strength or fertility in pre-modern societies could be seen as a precursor to the commodification of the body and the emergence of the fitness industry in contemporary society. And we need to remember that Debord's concept of spectacle is not just a historical analysis but also a call to action.
@@suicidalbomber8048 Well said.
Citation you were looking for on your breakfast example is David Harvey
Awsome
Oh ouhhhhh
Killer bro
I'm very glad I heard this name earlier today. Always. better late than never
Loved that ending, I guess I am a part of a religion and I don’t really care about that all that much.
Hey Mr west, if you put a poster on your merch store, I would support you
How do you apply this to things like instruments? because i think that some definitely *are* intrinsically better than others due to quality of materials and craftsman which produces better quality of sound....
I know more today than I did yesterday, but I feel like I'm suffering a bit more. :O
How, on earth, would consuming the “body and blood of Christ”, even symbolically, not be cannibalism? I don’t understand these cannibalistic religions.
Time stamp please?
Moar ✊
this, slavoj zizek, kaczynski, and max stirner; helped me break from leftist slave morality and hive mind
The left, right, center, whatever are all the same emptiness in the contemporary lexicon
You should break from the idea of considering a slave morality next
i want chicken! now!

Anytime a theory requires me to have something projected onto me with lots of assumptions and no nuance allowed with lines like
“Just go with it”
I generally just throw it out the window
Last time this happened to me someone had me read “ who moved my cheese” which was the biggest dump of a book I’ve ever touched m
People are unironically handing out garbage ideas and saying “ if you don’t get it you (condescending jab to put the burden of understanding on you to mask their dogshit take)
Llamas do indeed exist
Been following you for years now and still listen to every single episodes 2-3 times. Love your work. This specific episode, not my favorite, seems obvious at this point the thesis of the author and you've been eluding to it so many time. Yet, I enjoyed it.

Commodity animism in capitalist religion; diffuse spectacle.
Thanks for this! May the healing force of the invisible hand of the market be with you. Blessed be the whales of Wall Street for we are the krill!
i do not know much about the history of the world, so i may be wrong. but it seems like this "fetishization of commodities" seem to just be materialism and wanting more material objects, just put in a marxist perspective. a problem i have is the framing that this is some sort of issue within a "commodity culture" (i.e. the culture of modernity). i just see this as some notion of human habit. liking things means getting things, liking things and getting things makes people happy, so they do it. i am somewhat anti-materialistic, i dont see how material objects would bring anyone virtue or "true" happiness. i dont see the problem of fetishizing commodities as a modern issue, it is a human issue. i mean bhuddism, stoicism, and cynicism all illustrate the point that having pretty and shiny things doesnt make you happy.
its weird that the argument being presented is shown as some sort of a modern issue, "this is an issue with commodity (modern) culture", what is implied is that this "culture" didnt always exist, except it seems like it has. this isnt a "culture", it is rather (seemingly) normal human modes of thought.
it is interesting to see anti-materialist arguments be made through a marxism lens, i just have an issue with this issue of materialism being presented as some sort of modern issue, when it has been a human issue.
thank you for making this free
but i would def pay like 5 bucks an ep you have a ko-fi or somethin
God is dead but people will always have religion be it secular or otherwise
It really begs the question why you believe what you believe
Can one really escape the spectacle and become an authentic human being? Do people really want freedom? I don’t think so
☹
Interesting

32:00 christianity isn't dualistic, that sounds more like plato
Soul and body if thay isnt christianity..bruuh
@@casudemous5105 body and soul are one that's the whole point of the resurrection of the flesh
So much of your program time here is spent, unfortunately probably necessarily, placating the modern distaste for religion. It's a little frustrating. We've had thousands of years of incredibly intelligent people exploring different theologies all searching for some kind of truth about the world. It's disappointing that an effect of the rise of rationalism was to discard that field of knowledge.
This coming from a very atheistic atheist, just to couch any particular pro-religion bias people may think I have.
