    he Sickness Unto Death, and Other Fun Danish Party Games: Kierkegaard Without the Prozac is your gloriously sarcastic, brutally insightful, and occasionally soul-crushing guide to philosophy’s original sadboy, Søren Kierkegaard. 
    Tired of reading philosophy that feels like intellectual sandpaper? This book unpacks Kierkegaard’s anxiety-fueled, despair-drenched theology with the humor and honesty it desperately needs. From aesthetic dead-ends to existential panic, from absurd leaps of faith to spiritual ghosting, this irreverent (but accurate!) guide doesn’t just explain Kierkegaard—it translates him for the modern reader who’s spiritually curious and emotionally exhausted. 
    Perfect for readers who love philosophy but hate philosophers, theology with a side of dark humor, and the occasional mental breakdown in pursuit of authenticity. 
    What you’ll get inside: 
    Pseudonyms, despair, and that one time Abraham almost committed murder in the name of faith 
    The aesthetic life: fun until it isn’t 
    Why being a good person might still mean you’re completely lost 
    Faith, absurdity, and how to jump into the void without looking down 
    Kierkegaard’s existential glow-up in modern philosophy (yes, Sartre, we see you) 
    A roadmap for reading his actual books without losing your will to live 
    And a final call to wake up and stop living someone else’s life 
    No prior philosophy degree required—just a sense of humor, a tolerance for paradox, and maybe a journal for emotional damage control.

Taylor explores how momentous events in the story of humans and horses helped create the world we live in today.

    Drawing on Indigenous perspectives, ancient DNA, and new research from Mongolia to the Great Plains and beyond, Taylor guides listeners through the major discoveries that have placed the horse at the origins of globalization, trade, biological exchange, and social inequality. Hoof Beats transforms our understanding of both horses and humanity's ancient past and asks us to consider what our relationship with horses means for the future of humanity and the world around us.
