Series ThreeIn this episode of #TheNewAbnormal, I interviewed Kathleen Higgins, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas, at Austin.  Kathleen's main areas of research are continental philosophy, philosophy of the emotions, and aesthetics.  She has published a number of books: Nietzsche's “Zarathustra” , The Music of Our Lives,  A Short History of Philosophy,  A Passion for Wisdom , What Nietzsche Really Said , and The Music between Us:  Is Music a Universal Language?  She has edited or co-edited several other books on such topics as  German Idealism, aesthetics, ethics, erotic love, non-Western philosophy, and the philosophy of Robert C. Solomon.  In this episode, we discuss her thinking on topics including post-truth, autonomy, the Noble Lie, filter-bubbles and echo chambers, public opinion and media narratives, heuristics vs critical thinking; alongside the lessons of today that we can learn from philosophers ranging from Rousseau to Kant to Schopenhaur to  Derrida. And, of course, Nietzsche.

Kathleen Higgins 'From Daoism to Nietzsche...and why deception has become a modern way of life'

Spindly Leg Syndrome is a condition that negatively effects developing tadpoles and causes them to develop thin "spindly" legs during metamorphosis.  The condition is ultimately fatal and as such it can be a difficult challenge for hobbyists and conservationists looking to breed dendrobatid frogs to overcome. Many have theorized why spindly leg occurs, but there hasn't been much in the way of peer reviewed literature until now. To shed light on the subject, I am joined tonight by Kathleen Higgins. Kathleen recently conducted extensive studies in Panama to discover the causes of Spindly Leg Syndrome in captive Andinobates geminisae with surprising results.  Kathleen co-authored a paper describing her findings and we discuss all of it in this week's epsiode.  For more information and to read Kathleen's Paper visit: https://theses.lib.sfu.ca/file/thesis/5427Orhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/zoo.21598For AmphibiCast Merch, Listener Discounts on In Situ Ecosystems Vivariums or to support the show by becoming a Patron Visit: https://linktr.ee/AmphibiCast
