  • Beautiful Conversations

    The Psyche Podcast is a wonderful space for listening—care-full conversations with brilliant scholars and thinkers, this podcast is one of the best I’ve had the privilege of discovering. Love the Lacan-centric episodes in particular, but I’ve really enjoyed most of them.

    Quique is an excellent facilitator and host; the way that Quique allows the conversations to develop organically is really beautiful. I’ve learned so much from this show and look forward to the continued conversations! Thanks... more

    This is fast becoming a go-to podcast. Guest quality is off the charts, especially for a newer, indie pod. Autrey is gaining traction as a host. The Boothby episodes should be enshrined in some Hall of Fame.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Derek Hook: Fanon's decolonial psychoanalysis
Q: What is Fanon's critique of how Mannoni sets things up there?
Fanon critiques Mannoni for implying that certain people are more colonizable than others and wants to resist this justification of colonialism.
Derek Hook: Fanon's decolonial psychoanalysis
Q: Can you speak to that? How Fanon maybe is connected to this different way of thinking of the unconscious?
He pushes back and causes psychoanalysis to rethink and re-situate itself, insisting that the unconscious needs to be situated historically within the context of colonialism.
Derek Hook: Fanon's decolonial psychoanalysis
Q: Derek, how did you first get into Fanon?
I started thinking more about questions of power, always related to the psychical economies of the unconscious.
Erik Butler: Psychopolitics
Q: What do you think he means by the transition from being subjects to projects?
He suggests that individuals are now focused on self-optimization, constantly checking themselves through social media, rather than living as complete subjects.
Erik Butler: Psychopolitics
Q: Do you have a sense of who his dialogue partners were in this book or within the philosophical tradition?
His primary interlocutor is Foucault, particularly discussing biopolitics. He also engages with Giorgio Agamben and draws heavily from Heidegger.
