Latour died a few days ago, I would really appreciate if you would do another video on him, there is much more to explore! Saying this, I found this to be a really great engagement! Keep the content coming! 😁
I've been listening to the Philosophize This podcast since 3 years now, but I've never known there was a UA-cam channel. Why hasn't this blown up in numbers? It's the best source of philosophy for the masses imho
Yep. Hope this gets more popular, there are hours of high quallity introductions to a very diverse bunch of thinkers , so there is something for pretty much any topic that interests you. Found some of my favorite books trough this channel. Also, if you are currently reading someone who needs a lot of basis from other thinkers , but don t have the time to read all of those, you could get a brief understanding of those concepts by looking them up here ( for example reading deleuze w/o some knowledge of his influences is incredibly hard). I recommend this to any friends, even those not particularly into philosophy can enjoy it and it will help them.
My respect for you went tenfold after looking at your LinkedIn profile and reading an article on you. I'm grateful to have found your podcast. You really did change my life. I lost my father when I was little. I gotta say, you really are like a father to me, your wisdom and your passion for philosophy helped and inspired me.
Thanks for making this video! I read We Have Never Been Modern, and not having a philosophy background, a lot of it left me confused. But there were parts that I loved, like the way he dismissed the need for debunkings and revolutions - "The end of history is followed by history no matter what."
Thank you for this. A brilliant hopeful analysis of where we are now and how we might go forward. First I had heard of Latour and I will be following him up but yes, consider yourself pestered. More on Latour please...
thank you for this podcast, im trying to prepare for my sozi exam and that video 1) saves me und 2) helps to see Latour theories as something really interesting
It might be a useful rejoinder to discuss Latour's later work, "Reassembling the Social"; a smidge easier to digest, and some of his ideas mature. His notions of flat ontology are problematic to understand, and while I don't wholly agree with them, I feel the thought process is fascinating to delve into.
Reminder that La Tour is the one who insisted that Pharaoh Ramses could not have died of tuberculosis because tuberculosis had not yet been socially constructed. He has not brought the synthesis of modernism and postmodernism at all, but rather is a staunch postmodernist himself. There is no satisfying resolution to this debate, besides maybe in the sphere of the arts there is metamodernism, but that provides no answers for this epistemological battle.
Hi ! Love your work, just wanted to help correct the pronunciation of "Reich" ( was hearing your episode on Hannah Arendt); it's "raysh" , not "rayk" 👍
I am definitely not a modern according to your 10 points and I am proud of it because I don't want to end up woke, progressist, transhumanist and live in metaverse.
I consider Latour to be a fraud, and your explanation of his thesis -- thank you so much for it -- clarified for me how insubstantial and fuzzy it is. Atheists have always been with us, for a start. and modernity, as defined by your five questions, corresponds to a point of view held by very few people, alive or dead.
Actually saying you interpret it as racist is what makes it racist...meaning that, by insinuating the usage is directly attributing malice by its use instead of its use having value, then it's YOU who are the racist. Stupidity coupled with misguided empathy that comes out as passive aggressive accusations isn't a good look on a video about philosophy.
I think Jordan Peterson is demonized a little too much. Hes not a messiah or anything but hes an okay philosopher. He makes some good points. Still, this podcast rules
@Of the Refrain Ok, thats interesting to know. I've never read any of his books, but I have read philosophy books, I'll have to do the comparison. Maybe his strength is in oral communication but once he expands his ideas (in a book format) his fallacies shine through.
I think it's more appropriate to say he was ridiculed vs demonized here. Also I'm quite a JP 'follower' in the nore literal sense of watchung/reading content vs total fanboy allegiance, yet much of his ideas or attitudes I find deserving of skepticism or even ridicule.

I agree. West's style is great. He is funny at times without losing sight of the content, which there is a *lot* of crammed into 25 to 35 minutes.

Very well done. Thank you!
I love your podcast. I've learnt so much - Thank you!
I just discovered Bruno Latour, and I intend to learn as much as possible.
Also, I scored 0-1 on that modernity quiz, I take pride in that.
This was excellent. Thank you!
Thank you!
Please more Latour and Timothy Morton!
Thanks for your well elaborated video!
The fact that we also meet here is just
This was great! You should definitely cover more on Bruno Latour! Would love to hear you interview him, talk back and forth with him?
I came here after the news, to know about him. :(
When I have money in the future I will donate to your patron, cuz I rly appreciate it

man i had a feeling throughout the whole episode that this is just postmodernism disguised with horseshoe theory
Could you make a lecture on Heidegger and Latour in terms of Technology.
I love your podcast tysm
Hi ! Love your work, just wanted to help correct the pronunciation of "Reich" ( was hearing your episode on Hannah Arendt); it's "raysh" , not "rayk" 👍
Beautiful episode!! Make another one on laboratory life by Latour, wich is a great book!
Anyone else notice the upside-down mushroom?
Can you please do an episode on Latour's philosophy of technology and then his book 'An Inquiry into the Modes of Existence'.
And sadly he died 😢
thanks dude!
hi im a big fan of your podcasts and i wanna translate them to kurdish if i can get your permission
Hii, is the transcript?
J'aimerais bien la suite 😊
Progress is NOT linear!
I am definitely not a modern according to your 10 points and I am proud of it because I don't want to end up woke, progressist, transhumanist and live in metaverse.

Need more episodes on Camus
Hall Brian Lopez Carol Miller Eric
Hmmm ... more food for thought. (I sure hope humanity is not bred out of humans in the future ... not sure that would benefit the masses.)
i love these podcasts! and thank you for your work, but "off the reservation" is a very racist phrase
❄️❄️❄️

History stopped in 1989, and now thanks to Russia it begun again.
I find this to be glorious.
Very exited for new multipolar world
Just like 1800's changed to 1900's only in 1914.
