The podcast critiques metamodernism, arguing that it fails to genuinely reconcile modernism and postmodernism. Instead of bridging the objective worldview of modernism with the relativism of postmodernism, it regressively merges modernist objectivity with pre-Enlightenment mysticism. This, the author contends, constitutes a nostalgic retreat rather than genuine intellectual progress, ultimately sidestepping the crucial insights of postmodern thought. The essay asserts that true progress necessitates confronting the inherent contingency of all belief systems, rather than seeking refuge in comforting but intellectually stagnant frameworks.
