Informative & entertaining
Not schooled in philosophy, but always interested, a respected friend of mine told me about PEL a few months ago. I've listened to nearly all the podcasts, some several times. These fellows know their stuff, yet make it understandable for those of us who REALLY don't know much about philosophy at all. The entertainment factor is very high - I tend to laugh out loud at least a few times during their discussions. Through these discussions I'm learning about some of the great philosophers and the questions they posed, helping me to understand life in different ways. I told my daughter (an elementary school teacher) about the podcast and now it's playing most of the times I stop by. The enthusiasm these guys share is contagious. Their differing views provide perspectives that reading alone wouldn't. Educational plus entertaining - bonus! I look forward to more episodes and hope Mark, Seth and Wes don't run out of the energy to put this all together.Read full review »
