Stanford University. >> Welcome to Philosophy Talk. The program that
questions everything. >> Except your intelligence. >> Plus we talk as the show
where Ken and I and a guest do philosophy together. Not academic philosophy so much
as a conversation in a bar on philosophical topics. >> Science, nature.
>> And your call. >> Philosophy Talk is a unique thing on the radio. If you turn
your dial and you try to find philosophy on the radio you won't find anything
except in Philosophy Talk. >> Does quantum physics vindicate [inaudible] the mystic
of long claim the world is more mystic than it seems. >> We try to keep it
accessible but the main thing is unlike most things when we get to the difficult
problems we don't say oh that's for someone else to think about we actually
try to think about them. >> We are continuing conversations that began at
Philosopher's Corner on the Stanford campus. >> We usually have one guest and we just go
ahead at it for an hour. >> This all sounds. >> Like metaphysics. >> I think a
lot of our audience is finding, much to their surprise, that they've been
philosophers all along. >> Joe, and Oakland's on the line. >> People are
hungry to think about things, and know things, and reflect on things. It turns
out there is an audience. An intense, passionate audience. People who get a
chance to hear this program often love it. >> Life inside the cave and the mysteries
of the universe, plus your calls and emails when Philosophy Talk continues.
