This podcast episode featuring David from the YouTube channel @TheoryPhilosophy is about the post modern theorist Jean Baudrillard (the "high priest of postmodernism") and his highly misunderstood concepts of Simulation, Hyperreality, Illusion, and the nature of reality. David is an academic who has wrote extensively about Baudrillard and has covered most of Baudrillard's texts on his podcast and channel @TheoryPhilosophy (such as Simulacra and Simulation , The Perfect Crime , Symbolic Exchange and death , etc..).
Baudrillard is often associated with The Matrix film (which he did not think highly of), but he is a highly misunderstood thinker and most YouTube videos and podcasts seem to get a lot of his core ideas completely wrong, such as the faux "Simulation vs Reality" distinction. David and I attempt the difficult task of trying to break down Baudrillard's ideas in simple terms and debunk misunderstandings about them. But WARNING: This stuff will sound very confusing at first if you are not familiar with postmodern theory. HINT: Simulation is NOT the opposite of "Reality."
