Untimely Reflections #3: Karl Nord - On the Use and Abuse of Nietzsche for Randian Aesthetics

Listen to this episode from The Nietzsche Podcast on Spotify. In this episode, I'm chatting with my friend Karl Nord about Ayn Rand's Romantic Manifesto, Nietzsche's Use and Abuse of History for Life, whether H.P. Lovecraft's characters have volition, the use of deus ex machina in Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series, the depressing spirit of Von Trier films, morality in art and as art, and the alchemical power of aligning the artistic and the political.
