時報文化新書現場｜《來問問哲學家》「為什麼」究竟是在問什麼？和朱家安與李律一起胡思亂想！「人們有時會覺得，哲學不是一般人的活動，只屬於那些受過教育、能進行深度思考的人。這說法不但是錯的，還很危險。任何能反思自身經驗的人，都能做哲學。」——《來問問哲學家》作者伊恩・奧拉索夫Ian Olasov 當人們強調「文長慎入」時，李律的臉書貼文卻期待著「……顯示更多」；當人們問「為什麼」時，他們究竟想問什麼？《來問問哲學家》的第二場新書線上對談，邀請到擅長深度思辨的好奇寶寶－李律光臨，他在著作《顯示更多》中提到小學時某一天，忽然很想知道「宇宙的外面是什麼」「我為何活著」「我為什麼有意識」，而這些問題與《來問問哲學家》所收錄的提問很類似，兩書因此產生有趣對話。本場對談中，兩人將分享他們進行哲學思考的歷程，帶領我們深入思考哲學的樂趣！主　持｜朱家安　哲學哲學雞蛋糕腦闆／《來問問哲學家》譯者來　賓｜李律　《顯示更多》作者本集重點：－00:00　開場新書介紹－01:50　「宇宙的外面是什麼？」李律〈靈與識〉中的哲學問題，李律認為那些問題是哲學問題？－09:16　〈為什麼是什麼？〉李律喜歡的那一篇！當你在思考一個問題的時候，奧拉索夫帶我們退後一步告訴我們，你在思考時問題時，腦子到底發生什麼事？－17:00　李律的寫作風格非常態，選擇用長文表達的原因，單純是因為「大多數的人看見一張照片，但是你知道他看到的照片只是某部電影裡的ENDING畫面」。－23:44 〈我偏偏不喜歡〉我們明白社會有所限制，何謂自由？何謂自由意志？東方社會與西方社會的差異。－29:32　彩蛋！李律向家安提問「國家貨幣可以使用虛擬貨幣嗎？」如果你想知道某件事情發生了會怎樣，想想這件事是不是已經發生一半了？－32:07　〈時間旅行有可能辦到嗎？〉、〈該殺死嬰兒希特勒嗎？〉李律最想分享的那兩篇 ───── ✦點此觀看影片字幕版＞＞https://www.youtube.com/c/readingtimesweb ───── 《來問問哲學家：你沒想到的好問題，以及它們的答案》博客來│https://pse.is/3pxsmw 誠品│https://eslite.me/3plnbg 金石堂│https://pse.is/3n2wbp 讀冊│https://pse.is/3kslwe MOMO│https://pse.is/3mqgxb ➤時報行動APP｜https://shop.readingtimes.com.tw/ ✛成為時報行動APP新會員，即贈現金抵用券50元✛ 時報文化Official 𝙄 𝙂｜https://www.instagram.com/readingtimes_igofficial/ ©時報文化出版企業股份有限公司 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn Powered by Firstory Hosting 2021-10-0637 min $talkPOPc\'s Podcast$ talkPOPc's PodcastEpisode 52: The Stoics, the Bible, Artists, Eating People, NFT's, and Your First Period: talkPOPc Resident Philosopher Olasov speaks to talkPOPc Participant AlexIan Olasov begins the conversation with the point that philosophy can play a role in how we get out of the pandemic by building community. Alex brings in the problematic issue of mask-wearing, and how though he has self-identified as "not that courteous or respectful of others" he does see the general case for masks at least indoor. The conversation ranges widely and wildly, with Alex asking Resident Philosopher Olasov if Seneca was the basis for the Bible.

But Eva points out that propaganda does the same thing; Olasov agrees and then says if it's attention to something good then it's good socializing but not so much is fascist propaganda! Sometimes, he points out, people are fans of someone just as a short-cut for communication, like saying that "I'm a fan of Drake", and then that is a pretext for conversation.

A philosophy themed comedy podcast!" discusses with RP Olasov why we make art - do we do it for a purpose or is it just something that we have to do? If it's about beauty that's a bit of a problem because our notion of beauty changes over time. They agreed that although our notions of concepts are built over time in our lives, and you gradually acquire the ability to use the words, different languages do use their word for "beautiful" differently.

Joshua thinks of Picasso's Guernica and the reference to war - "what man can do to man". But also when we talk about "art" the term becomes expansive, but he thinks that photography can most easily be philosophical; it's trying to capture the zeitgeist of a moment.

Wisdom at WorkEpisode #18: Ask a Philosopher with Ian Olasov Ian Olasov is a doctoral candidate in philosophy at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York and a public philosopher at large. In his new book, Ask a Philosopher: Answer to Your Most Important and Most Unexpected Questions, Ian weighs in on the results of a social experiment he has run for years: philosophers travel to public places like parks, street fairs, and farmers markets, set up a booth, and invite people to talk about whatever is on their mind. He has written for Slate, Vox, and other publications. In this episode, Ian regales...2021-02-091h 46

Oh This WorldEp. #35: Weekend Grab BagWe start our grab bag episode, as we do each Friday, with a look at the week in numbers, and the numbers aren't good, especially here in Texas. After reopening too quickly and without adequate testing, Gov. Greg Abbott is now backtracking: closing bars he once allowed open, but still refusing to make masks mandatory. Over at Living Blue in Texas is a useful timeline of the governor's (non)-response to the pandemic. Don't forget: many Texas cities, like Austin, were handling COVID-19 responsibly ...2020-06-2658 min

The Madness ContinuesIan Olasov, Ask A PhilosopherIan Olasov is a philosopher professionally. In a way, I'm very jealous that he's decided to devote his life to intellectual and abstract thought. As I mention in the pod, I've been thinking a lot about what comedy and what philosophy can do in the world - and this guy is REALLY doing it. He literally sets up booths and talks to members of the public about philosophy, answering their questions, and engaging in discourse... you know, pretty much what Socrates got killed for.

From 7pm to 7am on a Saturday night, thousands of New Yorkers swarmed the central library for acrobats, musicians, and philosophy. Meanwhile, we present philosophy shorts about the definition of life, the nature of good and the morality of revenge, and moral relativism. At the event, producer Sandra Bertin confronts some white privilege, while Barry wanders the floors trying to get people to differentiate between philosophy and bullshit. Guest voices include George Yancy, Cian Dorr, Kieran Setiya, Ian Olasov, with philosophy by Emily Parke, Joshua Gert...2018-06-1945 min
