Philosophiraga: Episode Thirteen – Immaterial Reality
2 min read
“I refute it thus!”
– Samuel Johnson
Hello, friendly friends!
It’s been a little while, eh? Life’s kind of odd at the moment – for everyone, I imagine, not just for me – so my schedule might’ve slipped just a little bit, but I’m still here making this old podcast about philosophy and video games.
In this episode, we get a bite-sized introduction to the idea sometimes called idealism, subjective idealism, immaterialism, or “like, nothing’s even real, bro”, with a healthy dose of chat about Zelda and Final Fantasy on the side.
Take a listen!
And, of course, there are a bunch of other places where you can find and listen to Philosophiraga at your leisure and convenience. Every episode is available for your listening pleasure, because why wouldn’t they be?
If you’re enjoying the show, please do let us know in the comments, on social media, by yelling about how much you like it to random strangers, whatever. Every bit of support helps!
LISTEN TO PHILOSOPHIRAGA
(and more besides!)
Though he’s been known by many names across the vast and peculiar landscape of the Internet, every iteration of The Sometimes Vaguely Philosophical Mage has shared an urge to look far too closely at tiny details and extrapolate huge, important-seeming conclusions. He now hosts Philosophiraga, the video games and philosophy podcast, for The Well-Red Mage, and can be found rambling about it and his other creative endeavours on Twitter. Plus he wrote a novel, and if you bought it and then said you liked it then he might actually become the happiest human alive.
