  • The Meaning We Invent: Salvador Dalí and the Philosophy of Perception

    The Meaning We Invent: Salvador Dalí and the Philosophy of Perception
    Oct 11 2026
    Why can two people look at the same painting and discover entirely different meanings? Using Salvador Dalí’s surrealist art, this episode explores how philosophers have understood perception, interpretation, and the relationship between reality and subjective experience. Drawing on existentialism, phenomenology, and the philosophy of art, we examine whether meaning exists independently of the observer or emerges through the act of interpretation.

  • Why Good People Do Cruel Things: Nietzsche, Freud, and the Psychology of the Shadow

    Why Good People Do Cruel Things: Nietzsche, Freud, and the Psychology of the Shadow
    Oct 4 2026
    Most of us imagine cruelty as something committed by people fundamentally different from ourselves. But Nietzsche and Freud both suspected that aggression, envy, resentment, and the desire for power exist alongside our better qualities rather than outside them. Psychodynamic psychology goes further, suggesting that the parts of ourselves we cannot tolerate are often projected onto other people, allowing aggression to feel morally justified. In this episode of Philosophy on the Couch, we explore why otherwise decent people humiliate, punish, exclude, and sometimes destroy others while remaining convinced of their own goodness. The disturbing possibility is that cruelty becomes most dangerous when we believe our motives are entirely pure.

    Why We Want What We Can’t Have: Freud, Buddhism, and the Problem of Desire
    Sep 29 2026
    Why does desire sometimes become strongest precisely when something remains beyond our reach? Freud believed wanting was woven into the architecture of the human mind, while Buddhist philosophy warned that craving can become one of the engines of suffering. On Philosophy on the Couch, we put these perspectives into conversation and ask a more uncomfortable question: do we actually want the thing—or do we need the wanting?
