The Fundamentalists (Elliott Morgan and Peter Rollins)

In this episode, Peter and Elliott discuss the philosophy behind hangovers. What are they? Why do we do these things to ourselves? And the guys share some fun stories, as well. To support this podcast and have your questions addressed in future episodes, head on over to http://patreon.com/thefundamentalists 

What does it mean to be an individual, does the public exist, and why does Peter watch Person of Interest? These questions, and more, are answered in today’s Fundamentalists.

Elliott is giving up alcohol for January, so it's a perfect time to jump into the theme of addiction.

This week the boys dissect the nature of success and who we’re trying to be successful for. This episode is all about desire... other people's desire.

Hot on the heels of last week's discussion of Socialism, Peter and Elliott tackle another increasingly used political term... Fascism. Looking at it in its political, philosophical, and psychological dimensions, they aim to give a broad definition of the term as something more substantive than ‘someone I don’t like’.

Freudian slips: When you say one thing but mean your mother. In this episode, we riff on Freudian slips, Freudian typos, and all sorts of other things.

This episode of The Fundamentalists is brought to you by the death drive, and we absolutely kill it. I mean, we murder this episode.

Death Drive is my favorite Ryan Gosling movie. 

Why do we love - or love to hate - celebrities, what is their role in our lives, and why should a celebrity avoid thinking they’re a celebrity? These, and other irrelevant questions, are explored by the boys.

In this episode, we discuss tarot cards, twin towers, and everything in between! I am back in LA tomorrow and we will resume our regularly scheduled programming. In the meantime, please enjoy this very fun episode where I convince Peter that he's right about something for once! Ha! I miss him.

Freedom is the ability to upload a podcast ANY TIME WE WANT.

This week the boys look at the proliferation of new purity cultures through the lens of Melanie Klein. They talk about the Paranoid-Schizoid, the Depressive and how to accept a little dirt.

This is an episode about GIFT-GIVING uploaded on Christmas as a GIFT to you. Please don't thank us, it was really nothing other than a serious, difficult sacrifice. ;)

What have freedom, spirit and dread got in common? Join the boys as they make they move from Kant to Corona in search of an answer.

What is language, why can’t we say what we mean, and how does Elliott get his groceries? All this and more in this weeks Fundamentlaists

This week Peter and Elliott talk about hyper-reality, fiction, and the simulacra of Las Vegas.

You won’t BELIEVE the benefits of simple mustard seeds. Sure, you may have heard stories about mustard seeds before that left you excited and optimistic, but you’ve never heard the Buddhist parable of death, loss, and darkness. Tune in for a very special episode that just might not change your life!

What’s the deal with Jung? Why did he fall out with Freud? How do we understand the unconscious? And other questions we don’t really get to.

Necrophilia: We’ve all done it— the question is whether you’re the necrophiliac or the corpse. To support this insanity, head to http://trywinc.com/thefundamentalists! Enjoy!

We live with the constant temptation to commodify our lives. Making everything we do have some kind of value. In this episode, Peter and Elliott discuss the dark side of the wisdom that encourages us to make our hobbies into our work. An act that ultimately robs our hobbies of the very thing that makes them so important in our lives.

Elliott forgets Pete’s name before Pete explains what in the heaven dialectics is.

The boys offer some advice about contracts and negotiation and other things they have no business discussing. Come hang out for a more laid-back episode than usual!

Pete and I like to have about 6,000 years between podcast episodes, otherwise you will lose faith in us.

"We have already seen, with respect to both the ancient-astronaut thesis and Carl Sagan (Alienation) and the mystical implications of quantum physics and Niels Bohr (Radiation), how the lines between 'popular' and 'elite' theories are not always so clear...." - Jeffrey Kripal, Mutants & Mystics

Steve Zaragoza joins Peter and Elliott to discuss Thanos, the end of the universe, and Nicolas Cage’s best film, Left Behind.

Peter and Elliott dust off their mics and return to the Fundamentalists to discuss Game of Thrones (SPOILERS) and three types of sacrifice: the willing, unwilling and the unconscious.

"Let's go away for a while, you and I, to a strange and distant land, where they speak no word of truth, but we don't understand anyway... HOLIDAY." - Rivers Cuomo, 1994

Peter and Elliott talk about authority, the death of God and the important fact that lobsters aren’t castrated.

This week Peter and Elliott sit down to discuss their respective thoughts on what's happening in the US with the most recent unrest in Washington DC. Along the way they touch on the Northern Irish Troubles, Repression and the Politics of Difference.

Elliott and Peter return for a light hearted chat about a tear that lies in the very fabric of realty. Using the work of Philip K Dick, they touch on two types of trauma and the nature of repetition compulsion.

Psychic Vampires are after you. The Fundamentalists talk about what they are, how they work and how to fight them.

Join the boys as they discuss ideology, facts and the horror of Go Gurt.

Elliott momentarily found happiness with mushrooms. But don’t worry, Pete’s here to ruin the day.

You might think that Pete and Elliott are all doom and gloom, but... anyway here’s an episode on the end of the everything

Another Christmas themed conversation, this time looking at Freud’s nephew, advertising and the demand to enjoy.

Peter and Elliott redeem the idea of the fundamentalist with a free-flowing conversation about beliefs truly worth dying for.

It’s time to talk about time. What is it? How do we experience it, and why are we not (completely) inside it.

What is the relationship between thought and reality? Can we know anything? Is truth possible? Or is everything we believe simply a product of our environment. Join Pete and Elliott as explore the scope and limitations of knowledge. 

We're back in action here at The Fundamentalists. In this episode, we discuss our collective fascination with TRUE CRIMES, and we dive a bit into the Alpha/Beta/SIGMA male trend and how it compares with whoever "Woke Joke Folk" are. It's a fun chat and I hope you enjoy!

Didn't like it? Well maybe you shouldn't be ASSUMING things.

The boys are back! After a few months of hibernation, Pete and Elliott promise to return, and give an outline of what you can expect. As well as some brief conversation about dreams.

This week the boys explore why we often try to surround ourselves with people who think like us, and discuss the idea that our real fear of others isn’t to do with them being different from us, but rather that they might expose our own difference to ourselves.

Hi, all! We're back in action just time for a new episode all about one of my favorite non-literally real people: Santa Claus! There's a lot you may not know about Santa, but rest assured: you still know more about Santa than Pete does about Legolas. Enjoy this episode, and to support this podcast, join our patreon at http://patreon.com/thefundamentalists Merry Christmas and happy holidays! 

This week Pete and Elliott talk about The New Normal, Hegel’s Bad Infinity, The Vow, Unproductive Therapy, and how to work out whether Trump or Biden will win.

This week The Fundamentalists take on the philosophical notion of The Gaze and use it to help analyze the fundamental conflict that exists between the Republican and Democratic experiences of the world.

The subject is FANTASY. Just fantasy. Nothing else. Nothing like maaa... tion.

"I'm reading Chomsky, I read Bukowski, I'm staying low for a week. I heard a name I didn't know so I asked my friend Pete."

This week the boys talk about freedom, stoicism, neurosis, and the mysterious Big Other.

Some of us feel a too-muchness in our lives. A sense that there is something excessive in our experience that we must try to get rid of. In short, the feeling that we need an exorcism. This week Peter and Elliott talk about this experience and how it manifests in the contemporary world. Along the way, they veer into the territory of politics by exploring the social meaning of the Real and Ideology. 

Would you pull the lever to save a half-dozen people and kill one, or just let nature take its course and live with regret forever? Lose lose! Today, it's all about something called "ethics"! I don't get it either! To support The Fundamentalists, head on over to http://patreon.com/thefundamentalists !

I'm serious. We're going to attack everyone. Well, WE aren't, but y'all are. 

It only took a couple years, but The Fundamentalists has officially crossed the 100-episode mark! So we thought we'd reflect on the history of this fun little podcast. We're also gearing up to flesh out our new Patreon, and we've already got enough support to offer higher audio quality (whoo!). Check out http://patreon.com/thefundamentalists if you're looking for MORE existential despair than you can weakly shake a twig at.

In this episode, we discuss how place plays a pretty large role in who you become, how you think, and what you believe. In fact, is that all there is to it? Do we even have the capacity for original thought? I know I personally don't, I just mean in a more abstract way. You get it.

Peter and Elliott discuss impossible desires, like how they are apart and desire to be hanging out in-person. Our Patreon has soft-launched and our quality is improving. For more existential dread, head on over http://patreon.com/thefundamentalists . To see Elliott live, head to http://elliottmorgan.com/tour/ and be sure to check out Peter over at http://peterrollins.com. 

A very common problem people face is bringing love and desire together. Too often we can love one person and desire another. In this episode Peter and Elliott discuss romance as the art of weaving these two dimensions together.

What is madness? This week we jump into the issue of what a psychotic delusion actually is and what it has to do with lobsters.

To kick off the new year, Pete and Elliott dig into the nature of guilt, talk about how you should never compromise your desire and worry about peoples desire to see the end of the world.

Someone is slipping you coded messages. Messages that contain your deepest secrets. And the messenger is you.

I'm not letting him move.

This week we offer a friendly, philosophic-ish take on the battle that recently erupted between r/WallStreetBets and Wall Street.

In the chat, Peter refers to a speech that you can hear by clicking this link https://youtu.be/-OP5OLBauCg

In the midst of the COVID crisis the Peter and Elliott talk about the threats and opportunities that this unstable time presents us with.

Freud called dreams the 'royal road to the unconscious'. In other words, your seemingly bizarre and random night-time visions can offer a unique insight into the forces that drive us. In this episode, Peter and Elliott talk about how we might go about deciphering these secret messages that we send to ourselves.

Gonna take a sleep now.

In this episode, Peter and Elliott get into a knock-down drag-out fight over whether there is meaning in the universe - and they end up kind of agreeing?! What the heck?! 

In light of Elliott's recent engagement, the boys celebrate the news and tackle the issue of marriage. In this episode they talk about how to tame sexuality, move from desire to love and fail productively in relationships.

"Only in dreams, you see what it means" - Weezer, Ancient Philosophical Quartet

Is it the end of the world, or the end of our world? This week the boys explore the hidden messages that exist in people's anxiety about the apocalypse and alien invasion.

For more information about alchemy, we do not recommend looking to the alchemists. Because who knows what they were talking about?! Please check out Jeffrey Raff's "Jung and the Alchemical Imagination," or James Hillman's "The Alchemy of Psychology," which is available in audio form on Spotify.

You know how many alchemists died because they blew themselves up? It's higher than zero, I'll tell ya that. 

What is sacrifice, why do you need it in your life and what has it got to do with quantum mechanics? Pete and Elliott explore the relationship between destruction and meaning, look at the nature of commitment and answer the question, ‘what does the miser lose when they lose their treasure’.

Hi, all! We're back in action here at The Fundamentalists. In this episode, we psychoanalyze Batman, because WHY NOT YOU KNOW?!

Modern? Pff. That's so pre, dude. We're all about that POSTmodern. No, I still don't know where I am. 

This week Elliott gets to talk about his favorite band - Weezer. During the conversation we touch on a number of themes including Death of the Author, the difference between the Jungian and Freudian unconscious and how to turn the water blue in your toilet.

Is lasting happiness possible? Perhaps. But at what cost? This week the boys jump into the distinction that is made in psychoanalysis between happiness and desire. Happiness being a position that lacks the courage to grasp desire. Along the way Peter's interest in Hegel and Elliott's belief in aliens briefly meet in the idea of Hegaliens.

This week we talk about the various pitfalls that await us as we re-enter the world after lockdown. With the rise of oppositional politics, social media and covid, we discuss whether we ill-equipped to deal with the tensions and antagonisms that are part of social life.
