#101: Heidegger - The Thing, pt. 2

This is the second of two discussions of Martin Heideger’s essay “The Thing.”  Please see episode #100 for the first installment, which set the table (jug joke) for this discussion.  In this episode Barry and Mike focus on Heidegger’s notion of “nearness” and the “thingliness” of the jug/thing.
