  • A great philosophy podcast

    I have been watching Parker’s notebook channel for two years now. I recently found this podcast of his and have been really enjoying it. His talks really get me pondering about concepts philosophy, religion and fiction. The guests he has on are super fascinating too!

    Always informative to listen to and great to hear a Christian perspective on philosophy. His voice is really soothing so you don’t get sick of it and he loves dogs (and God)!

    To be honest, only reason why people wouldn’t vote 5/5 is if they’re a cat person…

Ep. 280 - The "Chosen One" Motif in Speculative Fiction w/Christopher Ruocchio
Q: What do you make of the idea that if someone is chosen from a higher power, then they can have plot armor?
If they're chosen, it makes sense they can have plot armor due to some divine providence, while without such a calling, their continuous success feels unrealistic.

Q: Do you think that hedging against simulation scenarios affects our belief formation?
It's rationally permissible to have anti-skeptical priors which could lead to skepticism about being in a simulation due to the nature of our cognitive faculties.
