  • Sicksense's Vicky Psarakis on the 2024 Election, Our Society of Division, and the Shared Goals of the American People
    Feb 16 2025
    Vicky Psarakis joins the podcast to speak about the political state of the country following the 2024 US Presidential Election, and together we speak about how the goals of the American people are more aligned than many believe. Vicky, as evidenced by her lyricism in her newest project Sicksense, is no stranger to writing about the common goals and enemies that should be focused on in society, and I very much appreciated having her point of view and discussing how recent events tie into the lyrics of her past and present. Sicksense's new album "Cross Me Twice" is out now

  • Dr. William Irwin on Metallica's Existentialist lyrics, the Search for Authenticity, and Enlightened Self Interest,
    Aug 16 2023
    It's about time we featured an actual philosopher on PSYCHIC WARFARE, and there's no one better suited than Dr. William Irwin. Dr. Irwin is a professor of philosophy at King's College in Wilkes Barre, PA and is an accomplished author who's topics focus on how philosophy intersects with pop culture. However, he's also an incredibly huge Metallica fan. So much so that he has both edited a book of essays entitled Metallica and Philosophy and written a book of his own, The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Irwin to talk about the philosophical ideas of Metallica's lyrics discussed in the former of the two books, including the search for authentic self, enlightened self interest, and James Hetfield's existentialist lyrics and values.
