THE EXPLODING HUMAN with Bob Nickman


Apr 4, 2018

KIRK SCHNEIDER is an existential psychologist who is the source of my finding the book "The Denial of Death," by Ernst Becker, a stark and fearless look at man's denial of the ultimate.  We talk about living a life of awe amongst the chaotic and mundane. Kirk talks about how the death of his older brother when Kirk was two years-old changed his family dynamic and set him on a quest to discover meaning.  We also get into the influence 60's sci-fi TV had on us both -- and his thoughts on technology and robotics in shaping our future.
