  • On Professional Philosophy and Its Myths: An Interview with Dr. Spera & Dr. Peña-Guzmán

    On Professional Philosophy and Its Myths: An Interview with Dr. Spera & Dr. Peña-Guzmán
    May 18 2025

    In this episode, I had the honor and the privilege to interview Dr. Rebekah Spera and Dr. David Peña-Guzmán, regarding their book: Professional Philosophy & Its Myths. Excellent book! I recommend you buy it and read it, and I recommend you ask your local library to purchase a copy also. As I say in the Introduction, these philosophers were willing to go into deep water with me, and they unflinchingly discussed timely, sensitive and very important topics with me. I thank them again! Questions and comments are welcome.

    If you'd like to read Schopenhauer's thoughts on this topic, as exemplified by his quote: “The vocation of philosophy can only be given by nature, not by the popular vote of bureaucratic administrators at a university.”

  • True Crime & Philosophy 3: Courtney Clenney & the Tyrannical Soul

    True Crime & Philosophy 3: Courtney Clenney & the Tyrannical Soul
    Mar 27 2025
    In this episode of the True Crime & Philosophy series of The Philosophemes Podcast, we examine the tragic case of Courtney Clenney through the lens of Aristotle’s virtue ethics.What does it mean to have a tyrannical soul? And how might ancient philosophy help us understand the development of character in the context of modern violence?Courtney “Tailor” Clenney, an Instagram and OnlyFans model with over two million followers, has been charged with second-degree murder for stabbing her boyfriend, Christian “Toby” Obumseli, to death in their luxury apartment in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood on April 3, 2022.Clenney claims she acted in self-defense during yet another intense argument in what she describes as a “violent and toxic” relationship.While avoiding any claims of guilt or innocence, this episode considers the moral and psychological dimensions of Clenney’s behavior—both alleged and documented.Drawing on Aristotle’s account of virtue, vice, and character formation, we explore how a soul can become disordered, and what that means for ethical responsibility.We also reflect on Clenney’s publicly reported diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder,considering how impulsivity and emotional volatility complicate questions of agency and moral evaluation.This is not just a story about crime—it’s a study of character.And, it’s a glimpse into the dangerous ideas brought into focus by forensic philosophy..The Philosophemes Podcast.

  • The Humanism Spectrum and Ecstatic Naturalism’s Place Within It

    The Humanism Spectrum and Ecstatic Naturalism’s Place Within It
    Feb 27 2025

    This episode is a recording of my invited paper presentation to the Ecstatic Naturalism Circle. Thinking in terms of "The Humanism Spectrum" makes discussing the relationship between humans and technology lucid, consistent, and coherent. The logic of The Humanism Spectrum makes it very easy to understand and think about concepts like "Post-Humanism" and the relation between human and artificial intelligence.
