BONUS EPISODE THIS WEEK! (woo!)
this week we're discussing social media and all of the insidious ways that it's killing us and our communities.
we dive into the ways that social media affects how we perceive ourselves and others, as well as the ways it's changed our priorities ... and our skin suits. but most importantly, we take a look at the collapse of friendship and how that's coincided with the rise of the vertical screen.

euthanasia: the right to die
this week, we're talking about the ins and outs of voluntary assisted dying and euthanasia. I have a greaatttt chat with Abbey Egan, who is working alongside a charity called 'dying with dignity' to help legalize voluntary assisted dying in Australia, New South Wales.
We talk about the ethics surrounding the choice to die in the medical field. We unpack the burden of freedom that comes with such a choice. And we dissect what it really means to die with dignity, and how the stigma attached to death keeps us from achieving this.
enjoy!!

love is humble
new episodeeeee :)
in this episode, i expand on the idea of healthy love being boring, and by extension, the idea that a healthy life is a humble and simple life. not one marked by extravagance or excellence. just one that is characterized by banal simplicities and the ability to be content with the the ordinary.
i hope u enjoy my ramblings ! please share with me your thoughts on what healthy love and more importantly, what a healthy LIFE is :)

is anyone actually free?
the foundation of all of my beliefs and philosophies is that free will is an illusion. I had an incredibly enlightening, healing and spiraly conversation with a really good friend of mine about free will, moral responsibility, and finding happiness/fulfillment under capitalism.

an honest conversation about suicide
whew, im back! with one of my favourite recorded episodes so far. we talk about death, suicide and the idea of legacy/success. We discuss albert camus' assertion that there is only one serious philosophical question: which is suicide. we analyze what it really means to die, if suicide is ever justifiable, the death trap of success/capitalism and the light at the end of the tunnel of depression. enjoy!!
