  • #034 - Can suffering lead to meaning?
    Dec 13 2023

    HELLOOO and welcome back to a more laid-back episode

    In this ep, we talk about the backward theory, why easy decisions can lead to negative long-term experiences, and how this relates to suffering in our lives (intentional or otherwise).

    We continue to divulge the importance of values and how they conduct your life experience, also loosely discussing the importance of curating your life experience through the people you surround yourself with - we continue by talking about the characteristics we don't like in ourselves and others (don't tell them/ we hope we explain why enough)

    Let us know what you think of the episode below !!(if your on your phone)

    And if you enjoy - chuck us a star rating (it helps the show thankyou <3 )

    • different psychological studies and thought experiments,

  • #030 - How to control a population
    Sep 18 2023

    Welcome back! In this episode, we discuss the ageold saying - "is it better to be feared or loved?"

    We adapt the ancient theories of how to rule a kingdom to modern days to offer insight into how we are controlled today. We discuss various controversial topics (like shadow governments), but primarily COVID-19 and how it pulled the veil on Political intentions. aaaand so much more.

    We enjoy these conversations because they never seem to be discussed anywhere, so it's always refreshing to zoom out on our lives and look at what we can see of the social mechanics of our world - We hope you take value from it :) enjoy :)
