Meme City
This is the podcast where we explore the power of thought, emotion, and creativity—woven together into stories, insights, and, of course, the memes that move minds and shape cultures. Here in Meme City, we’re building a cult of creativity—a place where individuals dare to launch the memes that challenge conventions, inspire change, and awaken our deepest truths. Together, we’ll explore the intersections of philosophy, science, and storytelling, unveiling the hidden matrix of our minds and the narratives that drive us. So, buckle up, open your mind, and step into the world of Meme City—because here, every meme matters.
Memes are ideas that you can't get out of your head once they're in it. For example, once you see a wheelbarrow with a wheel, you will move everything like that from then on because it is better than a sled. The concept was introduced in 1976 in his book The Selfish Gene by the biologist Richard Dawkins, who wanted to name it in line with the English word memory (memory) and with the Ancient Greek words mimema (μίμημα) and mimesis (μίμησις) for imitation or imitation. Memes spread like viruses and should make us increasingly socially smarter. Survival of the wittiest.
