If I wake in the night and can't get back to sleep I'll sometimes put a boring podcast on.
It's often a #philosophy podcast as they're generally too deep for my tiny brane and make me fall into dreamland, but last night one grabbed my attention and I didn't get back to sleep until after it had finished.
It was an explanation of #existentialism on the 'Philosophize This' podcast. The presenter (Stephen West)has an irritatingly engaging way of simply explaining complex ideas - and I *think* I might understand the basics of this subject now.
The 'Philosophy Bites' & 'Philosophy 247' podcasts are very good toe-in-the-water listening which do usually work for me. Unfortunately 'Overthink' goes down the usual podcast route of sounding like a toddler's party in a zoo.
