On vacation in Puerto Rico and trying to take some time to practice more mindfulness. Remember that politics is not all consuming and the best thing you can do for yourself is control your own thoughts and actions. Be grateful people.

What is Freedom? | PHILOSOPHY | The Chrestman Conversation #142
Instead of politics, this week we are discussing the meaning of freedom. Telos, Eudaimonia, and a bunch of other fun stuff. Come check it out on The Chrestman Conversation.
What is the Point of Thanksgiving? | PHILOSOPHY | The Chrestman Conversation #138
Today we leave politics to the side, mostly, and instead we are talking about Thanksgiving. It's my favorite holiday because of all the celebrations that occur throughout the year, it is the only one that is focused on developing a better appreciation for life. Come check it out on The Chrestman Conversation.
The Last Bit of Vacation & the Gregorian Calendar | PHILOSOPHY | The Chrestman Conversation #113
Spent the last week enjoying some sunshine and a little bit of the beach. Managed to avoid social media and the news almost entirely, which I now wish happened more often. Today on the podcast, we talk a little bit about tradition and I give the people some homework. Come check it out.
The Importance of Art | POLITICS | The Chrestman Conversation #112
Today on the podcast I read a little journal entry I made yesterday on the train. Just some thoughts on the importance of art for the human spirit. It's nice to take a step away from the issues that divide and look at issues that instead unite. Enjoy.
Let's Touch Grass | POLITICS | The Chrestman Conversation #111
A little bit of a different podcast today. Hopefully everyone enjoys. If you do not feel like watching I can summarize it very quickly. Go outside. Touch grass. Live your life and remember that people in real life are much better than people on the internet.
Richard Dawkins, Atheist & Cultural Christian | PHILOSOPHY | The Chrestman Conversation #104
Twenty years after publishing The God Delusion, Richard Dawkins refers to himself as a cultural Christian. Did the New Atheist movement get anything right? Can a moral society exist without widespread belief in God? Come check it out on The Chrestman Conversation.
