Welcome to Living Absurdism, the podcast where we explore the wild, wonderful complexity of being alive. I'm Tom James. Today, we explore the philosophical heavyweight match: absurdism versus existentialism versus nihilism.
We start with absurdism, the brainchild of Albert Camus, who believed life is meaningless but that's okay. Embrace the absurd and create your own meaning. Next, existentialism, led by Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, which states you're born without meaning, and it's up to you to define yourself. Finally, nihilism, often associated with Friedrich Nietzsche, claims nothing matters, but this can be liberating as it frees you to create your own rules.
We put these philosophies through real-life scenarios like being laid off or stuck in traffic to see how they handle life's curveballs. Discover how each philosophy can offer unique perspectives and tools for navigating the chaos of life. Whether you're a nihilist on Mondays, an existentialist on Wednesdays, or an absurdist on weekends, there's something here for everyone.
