Philosophy Bakes Bread, Radio Show & Podcast

As a man with Cerebral Palsy who has been an independent researcher in Philosophy for eight years, the episodes on Disability were fantastic and I am currently listening to the episode on mass incarceration. Philosophy Bakes Bread is a testament both to the pertinence of public philosophy as well as its breadth of concerns. A worthwhile listen if there ever was one.

I’m a recent college grad transitioning from the so-called “ivory tower” to the “real world” (there’s a bread crumb for ya!) and have greatly enjoyed the food for thought offered by PBB! I didn’t study philosophy outside of my university’s core curriculum, but PBB has given me space to think about the questions raised in those few classes more deeply. I’ve also learned a lot about contemporary philosophers that I wasn’t aware of previously. I wish I had found this podcast earlier!

I enjoy this podcast very much, we need more like this one in the World

What an entertaining and thoughtful show! I love hearing about the lives of philosophers and the interesting things they think outside of the classroom. The hosts, Dr. Eric Weber and Dr. Anthony Cashio, are engaging and humorous. Their easy enthusiasm for philosophy is infectious. Most importantly, though, the conversations reveal the ways in which philosophy is not just helpful, but also necessary to bettering our society.
