About this listen

Ghosts: Essays in Conversation is a conversational podcast reflecting on essays from the Ghosts Movement, created by Pedro Malha, philosopher and founder. Each episode explores the themes and questions of a specific essay through dialogue rather than reading. The focus is not on explanation or resolution, but on staying with the ideas as they are spoken and shared, offering a companion way to engage through listening and reflection.Pedro Malha Social Sciences

  • Fear Podcast
    Jan 22 2026

    I wrote an essay called Fear from my book Ghosts of Parenting.

    This is a conversation about how fear quietly reshapes parenting over time, especially as children grow older and begin to move further into the world. We talk about waiting, watching, loving without control, and how fear becomes less about panic and more about staying connected to what matters most.

  • Vigilance Podcast
    Jan 22 2026

    I wrote an essay called Vigilance, from the book Ghosts of Parenting.

    This podcast is a conversation about what it is like to always be half listening as a parent, the constant background awareness that never fully switches off, even on ordinary days when nothing seems to be happening.

  • Repetition Podcast
    Jan 22 2026

    This is a podcast conversation based on an essay I wrote called Repetition, from Ghosts of Parenting.

    It sits inside the everyday reality of parenting, the things that keep returning, the same questions, the same moments, the same tired movements through the day.

    The conversation stays with what repetition feels like when parenting is lived across years rather than moments.
