Hello Mogpies! Time for another recast of a classic! Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays!
------------------
We are back this week with another fascinating philosopher from ancient Greece. He was the father of cynicism, lived in a barrel, owned nothing and did what he wanted when he wanted despite how rude it might be. Diogenes is a rather interesting philosopher, he believed that philosophy should be seen through actions rather than theoretical thought. He butted heads and challenged everyone no matter their status in the world. He yelled at people in the street, spat in the face of nobles, challenged philosophers and mocked kings. He did not care what others thought of him, he had no shame and this mind set if what has given us the ideas of cynicism today. But is this the whole story? Were his words cherry picked to create a specific image of him to the masses so he will be more acceptable? And does knowing some of the other things that he argued for change our mindset of Diogenes?

Hello All! One thing that we love going over on this show is idioms. They are great little bite sized nuggets of philosophy and make it easy for people to digest those ideas. This week we are discussing optimism and pessimism through the lens of is the glass half empty or half full. As a whole we typically want our lives to be full of optimism and looking toward the future with joy. But here is a question, is it bad to have some pessimism in our lives?

This topic came from a social situation where Christian was concerned with re connecting with family after being away for so long. He had so many ideas and made up stories in his mind of how the interaction may go and how they may feel about him. But that was all just made up. So, this got us thinking about how fiction can shape our reality. And we had no idea how deep this idea really goes.

Hey there Mogpies! We are bringing back an oldy but a goody here. The idea of family is one that we feel we can easily picture in our minds. But that image is most likely different for many people, or we picture something that would be considered the "perfect" family. So what is family to you? Has it changed over the years? Lets talk about family!

Hey there Mogpies! We are looking into procrastination this week. Throughout our entire lives we are told that this is the wrong way to go about getting things done. And it creates a sense of anxiety and dread for us every time we do it. But what if it is not actually bad to procrastinate? What if actively procrastinating on a project actually helps us get to the best outcome for the project we are working on. There have been a good amount of studies done arguing both sides of this conversation. So, lets dive into their findings!
