Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.

Ep.9 - Universal History and the Communal Ontology (w/Nate and ALLHEART)

A dense discussion of universal history, where culture, scripture, and historical pattern are treated as one question.

With Nate and Allheart stepping in after a last-minute guest cancellation, the episode frames universal history as a way to think about culture, conversion, and narrative at once.

Ep.12 - Maximus the Confessor vs Thomas Aquinas on Divine Ideas (w/Maximos)

A rigorous theological dispute about divine ideas, hell, and whether Aquinas is really the less Platonic thinker.

The 12th episode of The Baptizing Philosophy Podcast stays with a hard theological question: whether Thomas Aquinas is less Platonic than Maximus the Confessor, and what that difference means for incarnation, fall, sin, and hell.

Ep.6 - Plato and the Ontology of Love (w/D.C. Schindler)

D.C. Schindler uses Plato, doubt, and living forms to test whether differences in nature are merely degrees or something more.

A philosophical interview with D.C. Schindler moves from Socratic versus Cartesian doubt to the relation between elements, plants, animals, and human beings.
