69. What if Life Has No Meaning? What if That’s the Best Part?
Manage episode 448450832 series 3321270
In this episode, I sit down with Joe C., a chemistry teacher by day and existentialism junkie by night, to dive deep into the mind-bending world of Sartre, Kierkegaard, and what it really means to live with freedom and anxiety hanging over our heads. We break down the whole existential package—freedom, choice, and that constant, nagging search for meaning—especially in a world that feels more chaotic with every passing day.
But it’s not just all highbrow philosophy. We get personal, swapping stories about fatherhood, teaching, and how those big, abstract ideas show up in the most real parts of life. We explore how being a parent shapes your perspective on freedom, and how navigating the chaos of the classroom often feels like a mini-existential crisis in itself.
Whether you’ve gone down the existential rabbit hole before or you’re just curious about what it all means, this episode will hit home. It’s about finding clarity in the mess of everyday life, and rethinking what it really means to live on your own terms.
