Belief does not subdue fact and some beliefs are worth understanding. || Not an expert, but damn curious! This podcast tackles questions on everything from religion and philosophy to history, science (and pseudo), even a whole lotta fiction, from the perspective of the permanent layman, Matt the Toothless Philosopher. I’ll be joined by my real life brother the one and only Mike the Mad Monk, potentially other guests, or just the voices in my head. Hope you enjoy!

Sorry about some of the audio quality... This one isn't as rage-filled as the other one, but it feels a little meandering to me. Got inspired while trying to sleep and had to deal with it. Few points of clarification: Gandhi did do the thing I said with his grand-niece which makes it weirder, but he was actually firmly anti-racist as he got older. …

TRIGGER WARNING: I talk about some horrible things related to Israel/Palestine, domestic assault, race relations in the US, and trans people existing (which they do and should). It's really just me hating on hate. It's mostly me ranting, so if you're after something constructive, feel free to skip it. Also, the phrase I couldn't think of was "Delay…

Longer form of the fillings, but still unscripted rambling with no opportunity for fact-checking. Today's session is largely about my recent discovery of Jessie Gender and marginalized groups, specifically the trans community. Not a complete discussion, but it does a reasonable job I think.Par The Toothless Thinker

RECORDED 2024 April. If I had to sum up how these shows are going to go, it'd probably be something like Uneducated Ramblings. We talk about politics and race relations and drug companies among other things. What I think is important about this to remember is we definitely mean well and we may say things incorrectly or are not forming complete thou…

This is me discussing why I'm interested in free will. I intended it to be primarily Robert Sapolsky's book "Determined", but I had to wrap in Sam Harris' book "Free Will". This will be part of an ongoing review of - probably - both books. Hope you enjoy.Par The Toothless Thinker
