A Podcast with Dylan Evans

It was delightful this week to have a chat with Dylan Evans author of Risk Intelligence, How to Live With Uncertainty, Emotion, The Science of Sentiment and The Utopia Experiment.

You can find the conversation on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/46pZJ5dVliprsH9NCFQBja?si=UzUQ_-pdQYOmBFkPOauwag

Dylan was recently charged (https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/hamas-hove-east-sussex-old-bailey-b1229435.html) with one count of ‘inviting support for the proscribed organisation in October 2023’. We discuss the nature of this challenge for him in the podcast.

We also discuss, amongst other things (Kierkegaard, Fundamentalism and risk), the current state of Western thinking, extremism and, Dylan’s motivation to tackle injustice, mis-truth and the nature of being.

I would recommend reading Risk Intelligence (https://archive.org/details/riskintelligence0000evan_e7l3) or purchasing it here: https://www.amazon.com.au/Risk-Intelligence-How-Live-Uncertainty/dp/1451610912

You can also get to know a bit more about Dylan here: https://www.opalesque.com/files/ADiscussionOfRisk.pdf

For those interested in the Social Psychology of Risk there are some neat resonances in Dylan’s story and what we are concerned about.

The podcast discussion goes for 50 minutes and gives some insight into the nature of risk, living and being.
