Welcome to Day 7 of Riskmas, and Part I of two Riskmas episodes dedicated to the Russian dissident, Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Alexander Solzhenitsyn is one of the most influential philosophers to have ever lived, and his work is work that – even today – is incredibly relevant.

On Part 1 today, I look at the life of Solzhenitsyn and the extraordinary roller coaster he experienced and endured. In Part 2, I’ll explore his ideas and share with you just why Solzhenitsyn’s work will always stand the test of time.

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
