The release of our latest episode today marks a modest milestone for Protean View––our tenth episode! Keeping the show running at a consistent pace is a challenge, but we're excited for what's ahead. We hope you're enjoying our content. Thank you for your support ✌️

We have a new episode out with @schuringa.bsky.social on the politics of analytic philosophy. Want to know how and why analytic philosophy framed itself as apolitical even as it was bankrolled by the CIA and the RAND corporation? Listen to our conversation, out now wherever you podcast.

Had a great time talking with Muftah for their new podcast series. Discussing the role of policing "superstition" and the secular, the history of magic-religion-science, my more recent work on critical history. If that sounds like your kind of thing, give it a listen: www.muftah.org/p/superstiti...

In the coming weeks, we have more episodes releasing, featuring conversations with Nader Hashemi on his theory of sectarianization and whether it remains relevant, Norman Finkelstein on the future of Israel and Jewish political identity, and Jason Storm on what 'superstition' is.

Our fourth and most recent episode features Daniel Tutt on how Nietzsche’s thought has shaped the 'winner-loser' binary of our capitalistic politics––which we appear to be helplessly trapped in––and how it presents an obstacle to the development of a real working class movement.

Sherman Jackson joined us for episode three to discuss his notion of the 'Islamic secular'. We debate its theoretical foundations and tenability in contrast to theorists wrestling with similar questions, including Rushain Abbasi, Wael Hallaq, Shahab Ahmad, and others.

Our second episode features Salman Sayyid on the 'Muslim question', the concept of defeat, & the nature of resistance in its aftermath. We ask and attempt to answer: Are Muslims defeated? What is the difference between defeat and surrender? And where are Muslims and Islam headed?
proteanview.muftah.org
In our first episode, we spoke with Ariella Aïsha Azoulay on what it means to be a 'Muslim Jew' & how she came to reclaim her Algerian and Palestinian identities as a former Israeli citizen. Azoulay offers fascinating insights into the limits/possibilities of political identity.

Since January 9, Protean View has released one episode every two weeks featuring conversations with special guests on the key issues of our moment. We discuss matters of identity, history, knowledge, politics, culture, religion, and much more.

Here's what we've done so far:

The grand narratives of modernity and the critical insights of postmodern thought seem to be discordantly converging. On the cusp of new unknowns, unfamiliar questions emerge that a familiar world can't answer.

Protean View emerged in response––to probe the metamodern.

Our episode with Daniel Tutt is out next week but available now as an early release on Patreon!

We talk about why Nietzsche remains important in our time and how he shapes our political language, including the winner-loser logic of late capitalism.
