Uniquely enjoyable if at times way over my head!

“I’ve been listening to “Conversations With Tyler” for the past five years or so, usually through earbuds while going on long walks. The guests are invariably brilliant, hyper articulate and usually willing to go along with Tyler’s off the wall interviewing style, which involves scanning every single subject the guest has ever read, written about, studied or researched, picking a random assortment of these, and asking pointed, challenging, sometimes oddball questions about them, in no particular order. Tyler specializes in the “out of left field” question: in fact, in the episode I just listened to with David Bentley Hart, Hart literally accused Tyler of asking him something “out of left field”, whereupon Tyler’s next question was to ask this philosopher and theologian “who played left field for the 1970 Baltimore Orioles?!” In sum, I can say with total confidence that, while I typically understand less than 50% of what Tyler’s guests are saying, can’t discern the intent of 3/4 of Tyler’s questions, and do not recognize 80% of his and his guests’ cultural references— I somehow continue to listen to this podcast and to learn something new each time. That must mean I like it a lot, I guess.”

“Tyler's conversations are engaging and creative in format. I came initially for the political bent the show had taken when I began listening but stayed for the discussions on a wide range of topics I never would have been exposed to.”Read full review »

“These conversations are fantastic. Prof. Cowen is smart and takes extra care in knowing absolutely everything about his guests so the discussions are intelligent and cover many topics. Highly recommended”
