If you've heard of Kojeve, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Althusser, Lacan, or Zizek, you have heard some version of the dialectic of recognition. No surprise, it originates with Hegel. We have Borna with us back again to guide us through the Phenomenology of Spirit, and beyond.

Hey Patrones, Plasticpills is out for the week with a grisly shoulder surgery, but meanwhile the Pill Pod discusses their skirmishes with the alt-right, and why it's important to get left ideas online in new media.

Patrons have spoken, and the next video will be on Freud's death drive, this will be an engaging topic and I've gotten to work on something with a slightly more experimental style. The question now is, what comes next? I'll put up some general categories first but you can specify topics in the comments, or like others' suggestions!

Here we go on Part 3, defining simulacrum, simulation, and hyperreality. We are talking crosses, holey jeans, house plants, and the Las Vegas strip. All original, enjoy!

Hello Patreon, or patrons (whichever is correct). This Pill Pod, ft. our friend Marion, gives a rundown of what we consider the most important concepts of Foucault's thought, and doubles as an introduction if you're rusty.
As we mention in the episode, we are thinking of doing specialized lectures, perhaps as solos or duos, so throw some topics you're dying to hear in the comments below and I'll pass them on!

Hello all, thanks very much for deciding to be a Patron, I had no idea that this was going to get to more than 3 people in a week. Anyway, we'd like to shout you out for your support, just unofficially, but I don't want to say anyone's full name on the public record just in case you're an anxious wreck or have a dark past in which the CIA is interested, so we'll probably just keep it to first name + last initial to be safe, but if you would prefer a shoutout as an alias instead, or prefer not...

This is not an exclusive post, as I believe passionately that everyone should be introduced to Deleuze, but if you would rather listen to it here than elsewhere, we're grateful for your support and here's the newest episode.

Here's an extended introduction to the members of the pod, our areas of interest and research, and why should NEVER get a grad degree (or why you just maybe should). At the end of the session we outline some plans for the Pill Pod going forward.
