  • Episode 10 - Are We Free to Be Evil?
    Mar 20 2021

    In this episode, Mike and Duncan finish off their free will trilogy (free willy trilly) by talking about free will in relation to the classic philosophical problem of evil. Are they in completely over their heads tackling such a profound topic? Did they do it justice? Let them know at thecomedianandthephilosopher@gmail.com

  • Episode 9 - Should the Police and the Electoral College Be Abolished?
    Mar 12 2021

    In this episode, Mike and Duncan look at some arguments in-depth related to the recent controversies surrounding the defunding/abolition of the police and the Electoral College. Specifically, Mariame Kaba's op-ed in the New York Times, " Yes, We Mean Literally Abolish the Police," and a documentary on Amazon Prime, "Safeguard: An Electoral College Story." This sounds pretty heavy, but the guys try to keep things light while also doing these arguments justice. How well did they do? Let them know at thecomedianandthephilosopher@gmail.com

  • Episode 8 - Are We Free to Not Talk About Gina Carano?
    Mar 5 2021

    Mike and Duncan reflect upon the end of Black History Month and well-intentioned white people gone horribly wrong, voting under the influence of psychedelics, and the latest round-up of cancel culture fun! (Yes, that includes yet more talk about Ms. Carano!) Then, about an hour in, they get to what is ostensibly the topic of the episode, more reflections on free will and the intricate philosophical complexities of it. And yet, this is just part 2 of what looks to be an at-least 3 part series! Did we do these topics justice? Let us know at thecomedianandthephilosopher@gmail.com
