Doing It Right with Pandora SykesYoda wasn‘t chill all the time, with Alain de BottonAlain de Botton is a philosopher who has written on work, sex, leisure, architecture - and every other subject in between. I first discovered Alain's work in the early noughties, when I inhaled his debut novel, Essays in Love, which he wrote aged just 23 and which sold over 2 million copies. Whether you're a fellow fangirl, or new to his philosophy, you're in for his treat - Alain's pragmatism (and his vast bank of wisdom) are so extremely comforting and clarifying in these muddling times. We discuss the difference between interior and exterior progress, the perils of instant gratification and w...

How To Fail With Elizabeth DaySPECIAL EPISODE! How To Fail: Alain De Botton on embracing vulnerability in the age of CoronavirusIn the second of two special episodes, the renowned philosopher Alain de Botton, returns to How To Fail With Elizabeth Day to talk about how to be human and how to stay (relatively) sane in the grip of a global pandemic. We talk about the fact that, right now, it's rational to be a little demented and how we should all take lessons from our childhood and be less ashamed of bursting into tears when we really need to. He tells me about the merits of stoicism, the comfort that comes from admitting the situation we're in without sentimentalisation and...

The show got off to a flying start when Alain de Botton kindly agreed to be my first guest – a brilliant (if not a little daunting) beginning.I was soon reassured upon arriving at Alain’s office in north London. In person, the philosopher, author and School of Life founder is every bit as quick-witted and articulate as those innumerate YouTube videos would suggest – but with a base note of light-hearted humour.A lesser-known fact I learned about Alain is that his surname, de Botton...

Zwischen Zwei Deckeln"Religion für Atheisten" von Alain de Botton
Etwas außerhalb der üblichen Reihe, haben wir heute eine kleine Weihnachtsfolge für euch: Wie kommt es eigentlich, dass Weihnachten immer noch eine so dominante Rolle in unserer Gesellschaft spielt, auch wenn die Kirchen Jahr für Jahr immer leerer werden? Eine Erklärung hierfür könnte sich in dem Buch Religion für Atheisten des britisch-schweizerische Philosophen Alain de Botton finden: Er stellt anschaulich dar, welche zentrale Funktion Religion über Jahrhunderte im Leben der Menschen eingenommen hat und warum unsere moderne säkulare Gesellschaft für diese Funktionen bisher nur unzureichenden Ersatz gefunden hat.

Meshel Laurie's Nitty Gritty CommitteeAlain De Botton On How To LoveHow do you find 'the one'? You can't. They don't exist, and in fact, you will inevitably marry the wrong person. But, it doesn't spell disaster. Alain de Botton, the Swiss-born, British-based philosopher, says we've been sold a lie about romance and love. He says love is a skill we need to learn; not an essence of life that just 'happens'. In this chat, we talk about what it means to love, how to love better, and question everything we believe to be true about love, romance, marriage, and fidelity. It's playful. Wise. And profound.Alain de Botton's new...

Unbelievable?Should atheists be more religious? Alain de Botton & James Orr - Unbelievable? 11 Feb 2012
Atheism 2.0 is the logical next step for non-believers according to cultural philosopher Alain de Botton. He outlines why atheists should borrow from the art, architecture, community, and contemplative traditions of religion without the supernatural beliefs.
The book "Religion for atheists" drew criticism from Richard Dawkins and others after De Botton apparently suggested that there should be "temples for atheism". De Botton responds and also gives his opinion on AC Grayling's "The Good Book" and Terry Eagleton's unfavourable review in The Guardian.
Recorded in De Botton's home, he chats with James Orr, a Christian convert studying for a Ph...
