The Bad Philosopher Podcast

The Bad Philosopher Podcast is exploring what it means to be human in this rapidly changing world of ours. We're building the #1 philosophy podcast, blog, and community on the internet. Being a bad philosopher means having the courage to dive into the rabbit hole, being able to boldly follow a new idea or perspective wherever it leads, and being willing to say “I don’t know” when the truth is elusive.
