Summary
So here's a new episode... with a song. The song actually belongs to a first draft of this episode's monologue that was much different... nothing was the same about it. It is a completely different monologue, but the song from the previous version still applies, even though ALL the monologue details have changed. I didn't discard the original monologue because the facts weren’t true, but because I gradually realized I’d drifted into making myself the moral centre of someone else’s story. Rather than edit around that, I recorded the whole thing again. This episode sits in an unusual space between philosophy, ethics, memoir, and performance. It touches on questions that show up in moral psychology, organizational ethics, narrative identity, and the philosophy of truth—but it does so while you'll hear me pacing around my house, thinking out loud, changing direction, and trying to notice what my own body is doing as much as what my mind is saying. If you’re looking for a polished argument, this probably isn’t it. If you’re looking for a paper, it definitely isn’t. The ideas arrive through movement, tangents, jokes, embarrassment, and revision. The point isn’t to defend a position so much as to watch one being formed—and sometimes abandoned—in real time.
