Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of The Decenter. I'm here today with Keegan, a fellow YouTuber and podcaster from the YouTube channel Essential Salts, and is also the host of the Nietzsche podcast. And today we're going to talk about Nietzsche. I mean, I guess we are two Nietzsche enthusiasts. I've had many Nietzsche scholars on the show, and I've been following

Keegan's work for a while now, so I thought we could have a good talk. So Keegan, welcome to the show. It's uh very nice to meet you and to everyone. Thank you very much. Uh, it's my pleasure.

Thank you for having me. Okay, so look, I I I would like to start uh before we get into the topics I prepared, I I'm curious. What got you interested in Nietzsche? And then perhaps uh after that I can also tell my personal story about that, but how did you get into his philosophy? I think the first time that I encountered Nietzsche was when I was a teenager when I was first going to college and I had a very typical experience uh that many people, many young men have.
