Philosophy of Life podcast


Below is the index of episodes of the Philosophy as a Way of Life podcast. Each episode is about one hour long and features a conversation between yours truly and my colleague Rob Colter, of the University of Wyoming. Sometimes we have a guest. We discuss all aspects of what it means to live philosophically. (Most recent episodes on top.)
