I knew that would be part of the old teaching company videos! I'll definitely give them a watch thanks for sharing. Finding those videos as a teenager inspired my interest in philosophy and it's what I eventually studied in university. They had such incredible content. The company was rebranded as Wodrium and it's good but they pivoted to more popular, consumable content and it's less rigorous in my opinion.

Other great philosophy courses from that era:

Robert C. Solomon on Nietzsche https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfiUrZFEZfI&list=PLdnXkNG3Fr...

Rick Roderick on the Post Modern Condition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjFiU9nDQD4&list=PLA20B69058...

Thanks for this reminder. The Robert Solomon scene in Waking Life re: Sartre had a profound impact upon upon me as a teenager and spurred my interest in Kierkegaard, but it has been several years since I have considered him.

Great to see that many of his lectures are available online.

Now there's a movie I haven't though about in a decade.
