For the Love of Pun
Even if you're allergic to puns, just take the medication mum told you to take and start listening because this is the podcast you should be listening, unless, of course, you're allergic to the history of philosophy too.
Well edited and produced exposition of some of the less well known characters, and ideas, in the history of philosophy. The stuff is definitely first rate in general, but particularly so when it comes to the history of islamic philosophy.
