Perdition (Season 2, Episode 10)

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. Thus, while the positions offered in each episode are in no way definitive, 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.

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 of late. 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.

Two Iotas of a Difference (Episode 12)

The phrase “it does not make one iota of a difference” should be classified with similar phrases such as “I am not my brother’s keeper” and “to thy own self be true” in that it bears something of a biblical or Shakespearean pedigree while it excels in being on the wrong side of history and truth.

This episode of The BetterPears Podcast features a dedication to Dr. Fugikawa’s paternal grandfather and the lesson of his life and legacy. The episode itself is something of a two-for-one where the initial historical development only sets the stage for a more contemporary discussion of morality and our desire for authentic life.

BetterPears Swag and Back-to-School gifts are available at the BetterPears Market.
