Customer Reviews
Excellent format!
Fantastic range of topics discussed with compelling philosophers. The questions posed throughout the interviews take this show to the next level. The interviewee is neither harassed nor given an easy way out. Perfect show length with no meaningless fluff. Very well done, indeed!
Interview with Bishop Barron on his POV on Catholicism Philosophy
I would love for Nigel to interview Bishop Barron. I would be glued entirely to this interview. Let’s not forget that the most outstanding philosophers (Plato, Aquinas, etc.) influence Bishop Barron.
Excellent
An excellent podcast, always very interesting.
