Superb combination of philosophy and narrative journalism
Every other narrative podcast that you like (probably) focuses at least 3/4 of the time on issues with significant philosophical dimensions. But they seldom seem to ask philosophers for their views. Lots of philosophers have made their own beds by vanishing into ever decreasing circles of technical obscurantism. But lots and lots are just really smart, often wise, people who have thought seriously about all the things that matter to you, and have a hell of a lot of insight when asked. This podcast taps that untapped resource, with a guide who is himself on a journey of discovery in each episode. And it's all put together beautifully, in a really well-produced package, built around intrinsically interesting stories. Bravo.Read full review »

Uses quality journalism to illuminate philosophical issues. Currently my most anticipated podcast. Makes me deeply regret not taking a class with Professor Lam when I had a chance!

This has quickly become my favorite podcast-with its main shortcoming the limited number of episodes. Barry weaves together strange and intriguing stories with deep (and not so deep) philosophical questions in talented way.
