Mimetic Desire: Why Do We Want? - Luke Burgis - #344

July 8, 2021

•

60m

Luke Burgis is an entrepreneur and author.

We feel like we are in charge of our wants. Like we're the creator of our desires. But Rene Girard's theory of Mimetic Desire suggests an alternative - all we are doing is copying and modelling other people's wants, and then spitting them back out as our own.

Expect to learn why you're going to die of a Brazilian butt lift, why mimesis is a kind of alchemy, how mimetic desires cause people to become scapegoats, why Lamborghini's creation story is explained by Rene Girard and much more...

July 15, 2021

•

131m

Rob Reid is an entrepreneur, podcaster and an author.

The last 15 months have been a terrifying taster of just what a global crisis is like, except it wasn't lethal enough to be a threat to our long term survival - but just because this one wasn't, doesn't mean that more deadly existential risks aren't out there.

Expect to learn how synthetic biology might be the biggest risk to our survival, what we should have learned from 2020, whether Artificial General Intelligence is an immediate threat, Rob's opinion on my solution for saving civilisation, whether we should totally stop all technological development and much more...
