Human Nature Odyssey19 - Modern Myths: If the Earth Is Flat, Can We Still Colonize Mars?Are we open to changing our beliefs? What assumptions are we willing to let go of if the evidence suggests otherwise? That openness is at the heart of the scientific process. To be human is to dream and to question. But when do our dreams turn into delusions, and our questions harden into conspiracies? This episode explores two powerful beliefs—and the increasingly popular movements behind them. One is the belief that humans could, and should, live in space: that we're destined to leave our planet behind and colonize the stars. The other is the belief that we...

Human Nature Odyssey15 - Are Hunter-Gatherers Liberals or Conservatives?What insights can our ancient past shine on our political future? Were hunter-gatherers the ultimate traditionalists—or proto-communists? Is it possible hunter-gatherers lived with greater equality and more political freedom than most societies today? And why do both communism and capitalism, despite being sworn enemies, rest on the same assumption of endless growth? Psychologist Jonathan Haidt argues that humans are wired with both liberal and conservative tendencies—and that societies function best when those forces stay in balance. Where can we find the liberal and conservative elements in our hunter-gatherer past? And h...

Human Nature OdysseyAstrophysics for a New Stone Age with Tom MurphyWhat will happen to our scientific knowledge if civilization collapses? Will astrophysics survive a future stone age? In this episode, we rest from our journey to talk with astrophysicist Tom Murphy, who's been on an odyssey of his own—moving from academia to a growing concern about the collapse of civilization, to an ever expanding appreciation of the cosmos. Together we'll gaze at the grandeur of the stars and marvel at the complexity of one of our oldest cousins: the amoeba.

Human Nature Odyssey11 - Capitalism & Monopoly: Why The Best Board Games Make The Worst RealityLooking for a game to play over the holidays? Why not try the real world global economy? Too late, you're already playing it! Have you ever noticed how the most popular board games just so happen to reflect core components of our civilization? Settlers of Catan involves the extraction of raw materials. Risk is the imperialism and war between nations. Monopoly demonstrates the pitfalls of capitalism. Now in the real world, I rarely celebrate resource extraction, imperialism, or capitalism. But the board game versions are so much fun. Maybe that's why we're all playing it a...

Human Nature Odyssey10 - Against Leviathan: An Anarchist Fairytale of the Origin of CivilizationGather around the campfire for a ghost story about the most destructive monster in history: civilization itself. In this episode, we delve into the countercultural writings of Fredy Perlman, whose strange 1983 book "Against His-Story, Against-Leviathan"—riddled with grammatical errors and misspellings—blends myth and history to explore the nature of power, subjugation, and the struggle between the rulers and the ruled. Our journey takes us back to ancient Sumer, where egalitarian hunter-gatherer communities transformed into peasants and slaves bound by a mysterious force even the rulers couldn't control. We trace the rise of the fi...

Human Nature Odyssey9 - Out of Society and Into the Wild: The Legend of Christopher McCandlessIn the spring of 1992, twenty-four-year-old Christopher McCandless left society behind, hitchhiking 3,000 miles into the Alaskan wilderness. Two years earlier, Chris had donated his entire life savings to Oxfam, burned his social security card, and headed west seeking life on his own terms - without telling a soul, particularly his parents.

Ishmael doesn't give us the "10 Simple Steps to Save the World" instead, he offers us a map and compass to navigate our intergenerational civilizational transformation ourselves. Where we go from here is up to us. We'll meet the fantastical Prince who first concocted the criminal justice system, have a final reckoning with our Taker Mythology hat, and return to the abandoned land of Ashbourne. Thank...

It wasn't by defying gravity and disobeying aerodynamics but by learning how to work with them. Daniel Quinn, in his novel Ishmael, argues there are laws of nature that we have to learn to live within, rather than resist, if we are to continue as a society. In this episode we explore what this "Law of Life" could be. This is an episode of short stories, cinematic sound effects, and wacky voices. Strap i...

We explore the history of the terms "civilized" and "primitive" and how their definitions have evolved over time. Topics include: Rome's influence on Western European colonization, noble savage theory, primitivism, and the rise of the identity "indigenous". When we say civilization who do we include and exclude? Who is civilized and what does that mean? If you'd like to...

Barros, they said, had witnessed their abuse at the hands of popular priest Fernando Karadima, and helped cover it up.
