About this listen

In our latest episode, I dive deep with Dr. Richard Gregor, a professor of philosophy and cultural history at Florida State College in Jacksonville. Join us in a conversation where we contemplate the awe of reflection and the intricate dance between awe, mysticism, and philosophy. We ponder the big questions: * The essence of a question; * The confrontation with mortality; and the therapeutic value of philosophy. Why does philosophy begin with wonder? How do experiences of awe impact our intellectual reflections? Can philosophy turn into an existentially awakening experience? Hear about how moments in nature invoke profound experiences of awe for Dr. Grego and how his philosophical explorations sometimes challenge and sometimes enhance those very moments.
