Deconstructing the Constructed Structures of Podcasting
Or how podcasters profoundly say nothing.
“That’s such a good point, Michael. We engage in robust and passionate discourse about the idea of psycho-geographies, and yet we always arrive at an intellectual stalemate. Anyone alive in America is bound by their identity, entangled in this complex web of semiotics based on their socio-economic, bioethical, geo-political, and ethnolinguistic positionality.
We are all bodies in spaces, and so it is our categorical imperitave to decode AND encode our own meta-ontologies as we navigate our way out of America’s Original Sin and even the Big Lie. At the end of the day, we can’t reify the interstitial and our standpoint epistemologies that underpin our given perceptual paradigms that our inherent to our subjective identities. It’s all intersectional.
We must make it our intention to create a space—a heuristic bubble, if you will—where resonant hermeneutics can unfold in a postmodern agora of ideation. Agora is, of course, referring to the ancient Greek public space where intellectual alchemies laid the foundation of liberal democractic norms that allow us to have these important discussions about the most critical issues of the day. And it’s this reimagining of recursive thought cosmogenies that’s so crucial to the future of not only the current discourse, Michael, but of human consciousness itself.
In short, there is no simple solution.”
“All I asked was, ‘Is this seat taken?’”
“There’s so much to unpack here, Michael, especially as you define one occupied seat against another potentially vacant seat by its quintessential otherness. But first, we want to thank our sponsor, Better Help…”
Nailed it.
As a new podcaster, I feel attacked! Just kidding, this was hilarious.
