“A wonderful new podcast that examines an interesting scenario that leads to difficult questions, which philosophy can then help us think through.

This has rocketed to the top of my podcast list.”Read full review »

“Discussion of philosophical ideas, not too diluted for mainstream consumption, but made engaging with narrative-based format (and, not so slick and "produced" as This American Life, which I appreciate). Barry Lam strikes a rare balance between content and accessibility- love this and...”Read full review »
