Dude became a father and now he’s giving me homework
@xvarzka33
Bjorn: Dad, can you read me a bedtime story? Pewds: Sure whips out Epictetus

When I first read Lost Scrolls of Jewish Wealth, I realized how stuck I was in the system. It’s crazy how much it changed my perspective.

It's nice to see a YouTuber mature with his audience; not a lot of YouTubers manage to do that.

Felix really embraced role of a dad. He wants all of us the nineteen years olds to grow up and be better people. And I can’t be more proud of him. Keep with good work, share the wisdom.

Pewds finally filming somewhere he's not being actively blinded by a laser

I absolutely love that Felix is doing this - I did a Philosophy degree and really believe in what it offers people. I will say that the texts from September onwards are really difficult and very much "I'm a great mind and here is my great work" kind of books. There's a lot of great Philosophy out there that's both classic and accessible in the way that Descartes is. Hume, JS Mill, Rawls, Spinoza and a lot of great contemporary writers like Putnam or Dworkins. Gotta say, Hume is the absolute boy though and would be my choice for anyone interested in grounded discussion of Philosophical questions.

Tip for reading the Iliad; read it twice! There are multiple versions of it, since it used to be recited orally. In Greek, it would have been performed in a rythmic style, much like a poem. There's a beautiful translation of the poem version in English by Alexander Pope. If you just want the story (but novelized) then go with a Penguin Classic. Again, my suggestion is read both as they are both works of pure art!

PewDiePie’s final boss move: relocates to Japan, starts drawing, dives into philosophy, and is probably halfway to becoming a mangaka who writes a manga about a YouTuber becoming a mangaka.

Pewds I am 23 years old but started watching you when I was 10. Your book reviews are what sparked my interest in reading for fun again and I could not be more grateful. Discourses and Selected Writings played such a heavy part in changing my perspective and dealing with my anxiety over these past few years, and I would've never even touched Stoicism if it weren't for you discussing it. Not even just reading, but exercising too. I feel like it's because of your influence that I'm able to work toward becoming the healthiest version of myself - mind and body. I am genuinely so hyped to do this book club (I've always found myself searching up what books you've read so I can add them to my own reading list) and can't wait to do this in 2025. Thank you Pewds!
@joshfueled
pewdiepie has managed to change his life through reading and forces us to do so as well, truly a CHAD move
@Ren4issance
I love how Felix has just become the cool internet uncle for a whole generation, just dishing out good vibes and advice in equal measure!
@itshassanaziz
Book Reviews with Pewdiepie has got to be my favorite series
@larryxiang822
saying that the Tao Te Ching breaks down wisdom in a simple way is devious. Sometimes, I spend entire weeks pondering chapters to reach a level where I think I understand the wisdom.
@smanea
Digestible classic literature for anyone who's interested: - Notes From the Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky - The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka - Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev - Frankenstein by Mary Shelley - The Stranger by Albert Camus For those who enjoy romance, read - anything by Jane Austen (she's great for learning new vocabulary!) - Wuthering Heights by Emilie Bronte - White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky - Letters to Milena by Franz Kafka Hope this is interesting and helpful!
@dojya4182
It is really admirable how throughout the years Felix grew from a silly gamer teen to a loving dad and a very wise man. Honestly feeling so happy for him!

Kant in a month is like sticking your head out of car window driving 80mph on a highway and Hegel in a month is like sticking your head out of a spaceship
