292: Nominalism and William of Ockham
30/12/2025 | 58min
In this episode, we learn about William of Ockham's ridiculous notion that our words don't mean anything. Then why am I even writing this, WILLIAM. WHY DO WE EVEN TALK. You can tell that I (A.J.) am a big fan of this theory.
291: J.R.R. Tolkien's "Letters from Father Christmas"
23/12/2025 | 49min
Apparently Tolkien is a fabulous illustrator. Who knew? I've seriously looked up prints, and they are weirdly hard to find . . . but enchanting. Oh, this episode is about Christmas. Merry Christmas!
290: Civil Disobedience by David Henry Thoreau
16/12/2025 | 1h 4min
In this episode, we learn how to---as Graeme would say---RIP THE SYSTEM. Well, at least until an aunt bails us out.
289: John Bunyan and Babe le bœuf bleu
09/12/2025 | 1h 3min
In this episode, we talk about allegory and cattle. Oh, and Pilgrim's Progress
288: Macbeth Inverted
02/12/2025 | 1h 6min
In this episode, Graeme talks us through a framework in which we can experience Macbeth (you know, that Scottish play). Turns out that when you kill a Scottish king, everything goes topsy turvy.
