Thank you for making the show possible. 🙂
The music announcing philosophers is EVERYTHING
I just love how there's this anime music intro every time before you begin to speak about another philosopher
I'm sorry that the internet bullied you into cutting out the guitar intro. Great podcast none-the-less. Great series and great work!
I never thought I could enjoy "podcasts" as much as I'm enjoying these. Great job!!!!!!!!!!
Right. Was just what I needed
Doesn't feel like a podcast. Feels like what my philosophy class could have been if the professor had been cohesive and entertaining.
Man you actually made me pick up the notebook I had bought over a month ago to note down stuff about design & creative stuff.
I started an indexed journal instead with random mumblings and notes on life. Not sure if this is better but it is a start :))))
"This was the two guys beating stuff with a hammer podcast for pythagoras"
Love the podcast, but got a lil problem with what you said. (Complete music nerd). "In the world of music, one octave is the same note, just 8 intervals up or down." There are many problems with that statement. Saying it like that concludes that an interval is a set interval. You would have to do a 1/2 step plus .5 of a 1/2 step for this to be true. It would be very rare to see music like this, especially in the time of pythagoras. I think where you were coming form is the octave being a perfect 8. Here, the interval is a p8, but it is not going up 8 intervals. If you think of it this way, you could have a diminished 8, augmented 8, etc.
If you changed your quote to 12 steps, this could make some sense. As today, in the world of 12-tone, there are 12 steps.
The 8 note difference is not the way to go. Although one who is not a musician may know the major scale (which has 8 notes, the 8th being the octave), there are so many different scales that are of a multitude of different numbers. For example, the whole tone scale has 7 notes (including octave). In the world of music, intervals, steps, ratios, have specific different designations.
"Harmonies we hear all the time, even the music we hear today, were just simple mathematical ratios." This isn't really true. Simple ratios would be known as either pythagorean tuning or just intonation or arguably mean-tone temperament. Today, we use 12-tone Equal temperament. Although 12-tone equal temperament has origins to ratios, they no longer exist within ratios. The only ratio that is the same would be the octave, (2:1). But almost all music systems going back as far as we can look have an octave. The next closes ratio would be the perfect fifth (3:2). But in the music of today, it's not really a 3:2. Today we use a logarithmic equation. Now, the mathematics look like this: Pn = Pa (12square root of 2)to the power of (n-a). (this would look much cleaner if i had the symbols, lol).
This doesn't take away from the points you were making, but I do care about keeping the accuracy on things like this.
Keep making great content
Extremely enjoyable podcast. Loving the guitar intros. Looking forward to how you tackle some of the more complex thinkers!
How is there so little views and comments. This says a lot about the collective consciousness of the time orrrrr philosophize this needs to get out there more. Either way I love the channel bro and look forward to more of these awesome videos that do the one thing that means the most to me.. makes me think
This was reposted, so it lost all of its previous views and comments. People who have watched it in the past simply haven't come back for the repost. Wish more people watched though.
Philosophize this is also in apple podcasts ppl
Great video!
I'm fizzing at the slits for a video on "nothing".
Human thought is a universe. Mind boggling.
I've read about the Pre-Socratics in at least two books. These two episodes were way more lively.
Pythagoras is surprisingly relevant.
Hey Stephen..I am a practicing Hindu...In Hinduism also it's the same concept that we will keep on reincarnating as different forms of life based on our karma...and the goal is to break free of this cycle and attain Moksha/Nirvana(which means basically becoming pure energy and return to God)...Any thoughts whether pythogaras came in contact with eastern philosophy during his life?
@Abhinav Sharma Hi Abhinav:)..Just read the works of Swami Vivekenanda...Skip the meditation and yoga part(cause you need a teacher for it)...but the rest of the Hindu philosophies expounded are pure gold for the rest of the life.
The takeaway: Empedocles is Captain Planet
Man I found gold😍
Empedocles is Captain Planet.. Oh my god.... it all makes sense now.
I didn't realised unicorns evolved (memetically) so long ago!
Empedocles' Love and Strife sounds like a primitive version of the Big Bang Theory
I was thinking about Captain Planet, and then you went and did it... *loses my $hit*
Sometimes there's a fine line between genius and narcissistic con man.
What’s the name of the song?
Parmenides: father of the idealistic nonsence that has poisoned human thought for mileniums now. As you perfectly said: that doesn't make any sense Parmenides!
the Hellenic concept of evil is not the same as today's western concept... What made man evil was the body itself because the soul was trapped from eternal ascension. and it is that trapping from eternal ascension that is the evil. not that the bodies desires. The idea of vice, virtue and the golden mean comes much later and i could argue that vice was even seen as evil.

Empedocles
That offhand comment about cartoons not delivering positive messages to kids anymore - I don’t know what cartoons you were watching in 2013, but damn that really showed off an ‘old man attitude’ and ignorance about modern cartoons.
