Best place to understand David Deutch's worldview
This podcast is one of the best ways to understand the ideas of David Deutsch, and Popperian epistemology more generally. Not only does the host Brett Hall explain these ideas well for newcomers (especially science fans), but he thoroughly explains the deep reasoning behind all these ideas – he explains exactly *why* these ideas imply things about AI, animals, mathematics, morality, etc., going through each logical step of the argument. There are many connections connections between the ideas in David Deutsch's two books, and ToKCast is the only place that explains the connections.

ToKCast presents a cohesive and coherent worldview, and criticisms of various popular ideas floating around. Bears re-listening to several times to really take on the depth and tight interconnections of this worldview.Read full review »
