About this listen

We are all living an existence that none of us chose and none of us truly understand. Naturally, everything can—at times—feel strange, chaotic, and overwhelming. The Art of Living an Absurd Existence helps us find peace with this; it instructs us on how to embrace and appreciate the mystery; and it breaks us free from reductive ways of thinking so that we can embark on our own absurd journey with openness and wonder.

With his usual candid tone and poignant sincerity, Robert Pantano explores paradoxes, thought experiments, and big ideas of philosophy in order to uncover insights about knowledge, selfhood, existence, and the universe. Taking you on a journey to the edge of thought, Pantano pushes the boundaries of your perspective while simultaneously providing immense comfort and peace.

Most of the essays contained in this book were originally published as videos seen by tens of millions of people on Pantano's popular YouTube channel, Pursuit of Wonder. Because of their popularity, he created a well-organized collection of updated and revised essays gathered in the form of this book.
