The eminent Orthodox scholar and professor Dr. David Bradshaw, author of the well-known book Aristotle: East and West joins me and Lewis and Fr. Dcn Dr. Ananias to discuss all the hot topics – Aristotle and his different use in East and West, the Orthodox fathers and philosophy, the essence – energy distinction in Aristotle and beyond, the Logos and the Logoi, the western conception of simplicity in Aquinas and Roman Dogma, natural theology, and the critics.


I reflect on the lengthy, highly philosophical debate from last night and reconstruct the arguments since we had technical difficulties. I consider how it is we can associate Aristotle in the pagan tradition, how my Aristotelian pagan opponent used his argumentation and how the position was flawed. Live at 8PM EST

Oh, so you forgot about Greece?
If you only heard the ravings of mainstream media figureheads you’d be excused for thinking that the only thing going on in the world right now is their “Russiagate” conspiracy.

A brief introductory clip to this week’s philosophy talk which will delve deeply into Aristotle.  Here we examine the basics of his Metaphysics by understanding his 4 causes.

Stepping back beyond Marcus Aurelius, this week we look into the origins of philosophy itself, the basic questions of metaphysics and the basic questions of theology.
What is real? How can we know? How ought we live? What did ancient Egypt and Babylon think? From there, we move in hour two to look at ancient metaphysics and early Greeks, as well as the poets and Pre-Socratics.

Join host Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats podcast as he talks esoteric Hollywood and movie magic with returning guest Jay Dyer.

Jay Dyer gives a basic refutation of relativism in all its forms through a reductio argument. Relativism is self-contradictory and is actually a weaponized pseudo-philosophy.
