    RL Finale! - Hegel and the Hermetic Tradition w. The Regrettable Century (Pt. 3)

    RL Finale! - Hegel and the Hermetic Tradition w. The Regrettable Century (Pt. 3)

    In the series finale of Red Library - A Political Education Podcast for Today's Left, we bring you a massive 3 part foray into the alchemical and esoteric labyrinth of Hegel and his relation to the Hermetic Tradition.
    This is a spiritual sequel to The Enchantments of Mammon series and the most goth/magikal episode we have ever done so who better to join us than our podrades from The Regrettable Century? Pt. 2 has our Comrade in Christ™ and RIP Kevin™ leading up chapters on Hegel's early philosophical development and the Phenomenology of Spirit's relationship to Hermeticism.
    It's been a hell of a ride and we are going out by turning that philosophical lead into gold the Red Library way (i.e. with meme references and live shitposting)!

    A Lost Horizons Network Collaboration
    It's time once again for Real Nerd Hourz with our podrades from The Regrettable Century! And we decided to keep it chill this time and read a book together that is only 1000 pages. We join forces to kick off our new collaborative reading series on Eugene Macarraher's The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity. 
    Chairman Bane and TRC Crew are once again joined by our special guest and Comrade in Christ™, Mir, for the podcasting version of The Book of Revelations as we end our reading series The Enchantments of Mammon. RIP Kevin™ leads this one as we talk everything from utopia to Ayn Rand to Herbert Marcuse.
    THESE ARE THE END TIMES.

TravisBickleDeNiro ,

Great for beginners

I’m still getting the hang of it and I’ve only listened to 4 episodes but this podcast has educated me more than any college professor and has drawn me into exploring philosophy more. These guys are educational and charming at the same time. Highly recommend this podcast if you have little knowledge of philosophy.

Taken it Slow... ,

Racism?

Ever consider the direct relationship between the predominant prison population being black and the FACT that over 70% of black homes are fatherless?

If BLM is really concerned about black lives, they’d work toward getting fathers back into the homes of these precious children.

Don’t hold yo breath!

Jackpot Jones ,

Keep it up!

This is a fantastic podcast! Thanks for all the work you do!
