About The Partially Examined Life. 1  The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy.
Ratatouille originated in the area around present day Occitan ProvenÃ§a (French: Provence) & NiÃ§a (French: Nice, Occitan: NiÃ§a); the Catalan xamfaina and the Majorcantombet are versions of the same dish.
