Brenden Weber is the host of The Philosophy Guy, a podcast that explores wise ideas, often in a pop culture analyzing context. In this host-to-host discussion, we look at the flaws in the materialist worldview and consider a variety of alternative cosmologies. We also consider the epistemology or moral lessons available to us by looking at intelligence in nature, the power of the individual, the ideas of thinkers like J. Krishnamurti, and more.In the Plus+ Extension, we examine the mystical ramifications of the idealist worldview, riff on non-physical (a.k.a. alien) forms of independent consciousness, psychedelics as medicine, destiny, The Witcher, and a philosophical look at Rick And Morty.Become a Plus+ Member at patreon.com/innerverse FIND BRENDEN WEBER ONLINEThe Philosophy Guy PodcastThe Philosophy Guy on YouTubeMindUtah.org @brendenweber_ on TwitterWE TALKED ABOUT..."The Hard Problem of Consciousness" and the limitations of materialist philosophyPanpsychism, Idealism, and the unified conscious energy of the universeStaying undecided and undefined instead of latching to ideologyGnosticism and its problematic philosophical outcomesThe world isn't in your head, the world is your headIntelligence and symmetry in nature and what it might tell us about realityCosmopsychism and the force that constructs the universe and balances itSpirit or universal consciousness as the recording device of all information in realityEpistemology: Is there a natural or universal law pertaining to morality?The "ought/is" problem of philosophy and seeking good for its own sakeKrishnamurti & individualism vs. the collective, and the hero as outsiderPostmodernism and the problem of group-identity political philosophyONLY IN PLUS+ (Subscribe!)The watchers, Nephalim, and Ideological egregores: non-physical but independent consciousness forms that influence societyThe Hidden Universe: An Investigation into Non-Human Intelligences (Book) by Anthony PeakeMystical encounters with other intelligences and the variety of psychological of to explain the otherExploring the magical nature of the flow state as psychonauts, artists, and athletes experience itWhy the body isn't a prison, and the ego shouldn't be permanently killedThe Case Against Reality: Why Evolution Hid the Truth from Our Eyes (Book) by Donald HoffmanMicrodosing tech professionals and the importance of research on plant medicinesCreativity as a gateway to your higher calling or unique spiritual pathwayBrenden's involvement with Mind Utah, a new organization promoting consciousness and psychedelic medicinal researchAnalyzing destiny, morality and neutrality with the story of The WitcherGnostic nuggets in Rick and Morty and finding meaning in the nihilism SUPPORT INNERVERSE WITH SECRET ENERGY POWER-UPSBlessed Herbs Colon Cleanse Kit Shilajit - "The Destroyer of Weakness"Become a Secret Energy affiliate and generate Karma Free wealth - Link To Spiritech Specialist ProgramMUSIC IN THIS EPISODEIntro: "Foggy Dreams" by Wisdom TradersOutro: "Out Of The Bag Vol. 1" by Acid Katz Hosted on Acast.
