Check out my latest Substack piece. This one is on the art of collecting mentors with some practical advice for how you can find and collect your own and some personal anecdotes to help you get clear on mentorship in general. Check it out: parknotes.substack.com/p/eat-the-meat-spit-the-bon…

New substack post on the simulation hypothesis. I'm still chasing a self-defeat argument. I think James Anderson's works against Nick Bostrom’s Simulation Argument even in light of David Chalmers's qua move, and I propose a sketchy transcendental argument of my own at the end.

One of the 17 year cicadas landed on my SF notebook so now he's going to be a minor character on the philosophical SF novel I'm working on. He's got the perfect look for a redshirt I had in mind. I think a lot of you will enjoy the book, it's going to take a while I think but my prep phase is almost complete. Then when I'm ready I'll try and not out 1,500 words a day for 5 days a week until I die or it's complete 😅

I get lots of people asking if they can send me a book or fan art, which is absolutely awesome. But it's a little scary giving out my home address, so I haven't. But I got a PO box recently! So if you want to send me something, now you can! I'm so grateful to have the best podcast fans, and I absolutely love the fan art I've recieved thus far. If you're an artist, do a picture of me and I'll post it on my socials and promote your stuff! If you're an author or just think I should read a certain book, send it to me 😁 I've been taking a deep dive back into fantasy and SF lately, so I'd especially love those but you guys no me from the pod and maybe know what I'll like even more than I do. You guys are the best!

Who are some guests you'd like to see on the Parker's Pensées Podcast?
I have my own list of folks I want to get on and who I've already scheduled but I figured I should probably ask you guys too.
I'm playing with the idea of doing 1 deep dive philosophy or theology episode and then 1 more popular level episode with like a booktuber or fiction author or something and keep that pattern going--always revolving around philosophical and theological questions, of course.

Pics are from my trip to the Sardis Events studio today where my buddy ran a livestream fun raiser. Gotta grow the pod a bit if we're going to break ground on a comparable Pensées studio 😅

Had a fantastic conversation with ‪@Jess_of_the_Shire‬ on Dune, Lord of the Rings, and the philosophies therein. Of course we had to discuss dragons and sand worms! Check it out: https://youtu.be/u926Wj9tdSg

The latest podcast episode is one of my favorites! Christopher Ruocchio, author of the Sun Eater series, came on to talk about his work, the history and philosophy of science fiction, Tolkien and CS Lewis, Catholicism and the Chantry, and more. Check it out:
