  • Summary

  • Join Dr. Jason Fugikawa for his insights on theology, philosophy, culture, and the verbal expressions we use to relate meaning and reality to one another. This is a podcast for nerds..., but particular nerds who are searching for old wisdom made ever new. This would be a great podcast while "touching grass," folding laundry, or sipping on a cup of hot tea after a long day.

    Obedience (Season 2, Episode 12)
    Jun 1 2024
    This season finale episode is on obedience and its expression in the human experience. The purpose of the episode, like all those of the podcast, is to suggest deeper meanings for the words we employ to express reality each day. Thus, while the positions offered in each episode are in no way definitive and at times are rather speculative, it is my hope that they function as timeless attempts at expanding your palette for true and accurate verbal expression. If you disagree with a connection made in the episode, please respond in the comments. If you enjoy this production, I also ask that you like the episode, subscribe to the podcast, and let us know in the comments. This simple task truly helps us reach a wider audience. To receive the transcript of each episode and be the first to learn of BetterPears announcements, please sign-up to our newsletter at the bottom of the page at BetterPears.com. In addition to The BetterPears Podcast, BetterPears also presents The Confederal Reserve our interview series on Rumble.and YouTube. which connects old friends over even older classical works that have shaped the life of each episode’s guest. They are conversations long overdue and designed to model substantive conversations about the great ideas that you too can have with formerly close friends and family who may have become distant since the last election cycle. Visit our video channels through the links in the description. Finally, The BetterPears Podcast is offered free through the wonder of the internet but made possible through the continued contributions of our listener audience. In March, we announced our new crowdfunding program, BetterPears Leaves. The program is simple and some might say elegant in design. Contribute $12 or more each month to BetterPears and receive a thank you Goldback in the mail. It is like a Patreon but with fractional, physical gold instead of BTS and blooper reels. If you have been listening to The BetterPears Podcast or The Confederal Reserve for some time and recognize that the ideas shared stand out from other offering of the internet, are worth sharing, and are worthy of your support, this community driven contribution program is for you.

And now, on with the episode. *** If you enjoy this production, I also ask that you like the episode, subscribe to the podcast, and leave a comment should you be so inclined and able on this listening platform.

  • Altum (Season 2, Episode 11)

    Altum (Season 2, Episode 11)
    May 19 2024
    This episode is on the Latin word, “altum” and its two disparate meanings. The purpose of the episode, like all those of the podcast, is to suggest a deeper etymology and etiology for the words we employ to express reality each day. Thus, while the positions offered in each episode are in no way definitive and at times are rather speculative, it is my hope that they function as timeless attempts at expanding your palette for true and accurate verbal expression.

    Perdition (Season 2, Episode 10)
    May 11 2024
    This episode is on perdition (and by extension forgiveness). The purpose of the episode, like all those of the podcast, is to suggest a deeper etymology and etiology for the words we employ to express reality each day.
