Ep. 19 - Nietzsche and His Madman

In this episode we discuss the madness of Nietzsche’s madman. What’s the madman (Nietzsche?) mad about? Can this madness be overcome? Are we today still ill-equipped to register the death of God? Has the madman still “come too soon”? Hear what we think. If you want to contact us, hit us up at therilkeanzoo[at]gmail.com. Also, find us on Patreon at patreon.com/therilkeanzoo.
