Dr. Vanessa Christina Wills is Associate Professor of Philosophy at The George Washington University. Her areas of specialization are moral, social, and political philosophy, nineteenth century German philosophy (especially Karl Marx), and the philosophy of race. Her research is importantly informed by her study of Marx’s work, and focuses on how socioeconomic arrangements can inhibit or promote the realization of values such as freedom, equality, and human development. She is the author of Marx’s Ethical Vision.
In this episode, we focus on Marx’s Ethical Vision. We start by discussing Marxism and morality, and whether morality is a form of ideology. We talk about human nature, normativity, and the “rich individual”. We discuss “bourgeois” ethics, individuality, and human rights. We talk about the idea of abolishing morality, and how life would be like in a fully developed communist society. We also talk about the failures of neoliberal capitalism, the role of intellectuals, and intersectionality.

Dr. Paul Seabright is British Professor of Economics in the Industrial Economics Institute and Toulouse School of Economics at the University of Toulouse, France. His research focuses on microeconomic theory, development economics, industrial policy in transition economies, and state aids to industry. He is the author of The Divine Economy: How Religions Compete for Wealth, Power, and People.
In this episode, we focus on The Divine Economy. We first discuss how economics applies to the study of religion. We talk about how relevant religions institutions are today, religions as businesses, how religions are so successful, how religion has evolved, whether women are more religious than men, abstruse aspects of theology and ritual, the success of religions without central authority, and the relationship between religious power and political power. We discuss if there could be a religious authoritarian backlash against equality, democracy, and rights for minorities. Finally, we talk about the future of religiosity and secularism, and how we can manage religious power for the good of everyone.

Dr. Mandi Astola is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the Delft University of Technology. Her research focuses on character: what good and bad character traits are like, why they are good or bad, and whether their status as good or bad changes according to context, and whether groups have a character which we can evaluate morally and epistemically.
In this episode, we talk about character, virtue, and vice. We start by discussing what character is. We then talk about virtues and vices, virtue ethics and virtue epistemology, sense of humor as a virtue, group character, collective intelligence, and collective virtues and vices. Finally, we discuss Mandevillian virtues and vices, and whether sometimes individual vices can be good.

Dr. Laura Betzig is a Ph.D. in anthropology at Northwestern University; she’s held research and teaching positions at Northwestern, the University of California, and the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History. Her latest book is The Badge of Lost Innocence: A History of the West.
In this episode, we focus on The Badge of Lost Innocence. We first discuss how to understand human history as natural history, hunter-gatherer societies, and celibates and sterile castes in Neolithic societies. We then delve into the Roman empire, and talk about the role of eunuchs, emperors and their concubines, and the lives of slaves. We also talk about Medieval Europe, the roles of unmarried and celibate people in the Holy Roman Empire, what happened to bastards, Women’s rooms in royal estates, the role of the Church, and the crusades. We discuss Magna Carta and the parliament in England, and how unmarried women were treated in England. We then explore the decline in promiscuity, and people writing against celibacy, as well as colonization and migration. Finally, we discuss what all of this tells us about the history of inequality, and the social role of monogamy.

Dr. Manvir Singh is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Davis. His research program aims to explain why societies develop complex, recurrent traditions such as shamanism, witchcraft, origin myths, property rights, sharing norms, lullabies, dance, music, and gods, as these have appeared in all types of societies across the globe, from nomadic hunter-gatherer bands to complex, industrial, mega-urbanized states. He is the author of Shamanism: The Timeless Religion.
In this episode, we focus on Shamanism. We start by discussing what shamanism is, the work of Dr. Singh in Siberut, and the psychological foundations of shamanism. We then talk about shamanism in industrialized societies, how shamanism relates to organized religion, neo-shamanism, practices and rituals in shamanism, trance and shamanic states of consciousness, and initiations. We also talk about the social roles of shamans, and we discuss whether shamanism works. Finally, we talk about the use of psychedelics in traditional societies.

In this episode, we focus on Bitch. We start by talking about the origins of the word “bitch”, how it relates to dog and slut, how it acquired the meaning of “unpleasant woman”, and how meanings in general change over time. We also discuss how it has been used as a pejorative against feminists, and how the word was reclaimed by them. We talk about the sexist ideas it is associated with, how it relates to the c-word, how it is used to insult men, and how it ties to gender roles. We also talk about the expression “son of a bitch”, and how people use the word “bitch” today.

Dr. Kostas Kampourakis is author and editor of several books about science. He works at the Teacher Training Institute and the Section of Biology at the University of Geneva. At the Section of Biology, he teaches the courses “Biologie et Société” and “Comprendre l’évolution”. He is the author and editor of several books, including Darwin Mythology: Debunking Myths, Correcting Falsehoods.
In this episode, we focus on Darwin Mythology. We start by talking about the problem with hero-worshipping in science, and what is a myth. We then go through several myths and falsehoods associated with Darwin, including whether his ideas were original to him; the Galápagos Islands and the finches; whether Darwin was an armchair theoretician; his reaction to Lamarck’s ideas; Alfred Russell Wallace; whether Darwin’s opponents had good arguments; the origins of the phrase “survival of the fittest”; essentialism; African human origins; whether Darwin’s theory was revolutionary; and whether it makes sense to question Darwin. Finally, we talk about what we can learn about how science works by debunking such myths.

We discuss what the economy is, and how wealth is created. We also discuss whether we need the capitalist class, who the essential workers are, the impact of billionaires in society and politics, and philanthropy. We then go through topics like social mobility, economic inequality, Universal Basic Income, how to measure poverty, the gender pay gap, the housing crisis, and inflation and the cost-of-living crisis. Finally, we talk about how we can make the world economy more resilient, and we discuss how we can fix our economic systems.

Dr. Robert Krueger is Distinguished McKnight University Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Minnesota. His specialties include behavior genetics, clinical and personality psychology, quantitative psychology, personality disorders, aging, and health. He is one of the most highly cited psychologists in the world. He is part ofthe leadership of an international project, The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP), which aims to articulate a taxonomy of symptoms that provide researchers and practitioners with a means to describe an individual’s mental health issues, as well as their major and minor symptoms, along a spectrum.
In this episode, we start by talking about how psychiatric disorders are classified in the DSM and the ICD. We discuss what a mental disorder is, and the relationship between personality traits and psychopathology. We then talk about The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology, the relationship between symptoms and traits, etiology and causal influences, and how disorders are classified within this framework. We also talk about a general factor of psychopathology, and personality disorders. Finally, we discuss subjective wellbeing, and how it relates to personality traits.

Cody Moser is a PhD candidate and Fletcher Jones Fellow in the Department of Cognitive and Information Sciences at UC Merced, and a 2024 Junior Fellow at The Institute for Humane Studies. He works on questions examining the relationship between structure and adaptation in social, biological, economic, and neural systems from a complex systems perspective. To do this, he utilizes methods from network theory, agent-based modeling, and large-scale corpus analysis.
In this episode, we first discuss collective intelligence. We then delve into cultural innovation, and talk about different structures of social networks and which of them facilitate cultural innovation. We also talk about factors that play a role in cultural innovation; inequality, and genius effects; and cumulative cultural evolution. Finally, we talk about infant-directed speech, and music and the diversity of songs.

Dr. Agustín Fuentes is Professor of Anthropology at Princeton University. His research focuses on the biosocial, delving into the entanglement of biological systems with the social and cultural lives of humans, our ancestors, and a few of the other animals with whom humanity shares close relations. His latest book is Sex Is a Spectrum: The Biological Limits of the Binary.
In this episode, we focus on Sex Is a Spectrum. We start by discussing why sex has evolved; isogamy and anisogamy; what is a male, and what is a female; patterns of sexual and reproductive behavior; hermaphrodites; and “monogamous” primates and naked mole rats. We talk about why humans are “biocultural”, intersex people, comparisons with other primates, and why not all sex is reproductive and why that matters. We then talk about the differences between sex and gender, and the relationship between the sex chromosomes and primary and secondary sexual characteristics. We discuss what a spectrum is, and why a binary approach to sex can be problematic. Finally, we address some arguments against sex being a spectrum, and a nonbinary definitionof sex.

We go through heroic love, the First Sexual Revolution, courtly love, the Second Sexual Revolution, libertine love, confluent love and the Third Sexual Revolution, and marriage patterns across history. We talk about issues with modern mating, namely singledom, sexual inactivity, and dropping fertility rates. We also talk about incels, insings, and the social consequences of high rates of bachelors. Finally, we discuss the potential Fourth Sexual Revolution, and solutions to modern mating problems.

Dr. Daniel Conroy-Beam is Associate Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). He uses an evolutionary perspective to understand how mate preferences are linked to actual mating outcomes. Specifically, he is interested in how mate preferences are integrated with one another computationally in order to make mating decisions.
In this episode, we talk about how the manosphere misuses evolutionary psychology research. We start by talking about what the manosphere is, and how they misappropriated Dr. Conroy-Beam's research. We discuss some mysoginist claims, why evolutionary psychology is so appealing to the manosphere, and evolutionary psychologists who align themselves with the manosphere. We talk about the motivations of people who have made a name for themselves in the manosphere, and how the manosphere also hurts the men who are attracted to it. Finally, we discuss what evolutionary psychologist should do to fight back against the misuse of their own research.

Dr. Alexander Thomas is a Senior Lecturer in Media Production and Film at the University of East London. He is the author of The Politics and Ethics of Transhumanism: Techno-Human Evolution and Advanced Capitalism.
In this episode, we focus on The Politics and Ethics of Transhumanism. We start by discussing what transhumanism is, its tenets, different kinds of transhumanism, enhancement, hierarchy and elitism, and arguments against transhumanism. We delve into advanced capitalism, longtermism, accelerationism, effective altruism, TESCREALism, the politics of transhumanism, and eugenics. We also talk about data totalitarianism, the consequences of a cybernetic approach to the human mind, artificial general intelligence (AGI), and posthumanism. We discuss whether transhumanism can be a religious movement. Finally, we talk about the risk of dehumanization, and how we can ethically approach a potential transhuman future.

Dr. Karoline Wiesner is Professor of Complexity Sciences at the University of Potsdam. Interested in the sciences of complexity, Dr. Wiesner began to work on information theoretic representations of complex systems as a PostDoc at the Santa Fe Institute (USA) and the University of California, Davis. Her work centered around information theoretic representations of quantum dynamical systems. Her research focuses on the use of information theory in the study of formation, maintenance and stability of complex systems. She is co-author of “What Is a Complex System?”.
In this episode, we focus on “What Is a Complex System?”. We start by talking about the history of complexity science, the features of a complex system, and emergence. We then go through examples of phenomena and scientific disciplines complexity science applies to, including physics, climate science, the eusocial insects, and neuroscience. We discuss whether the behavior of a complex system can be predicted, and whether complexity science is one single scientific theory. Finally, we talk about the future of complexity science.

Dr. John Odling-Smee is Emeritus Research Fellow at the Mansfield College at the University of Oxford. Prior to retirement, he lectured in Biological Anthropology at Oxford. He is the author of Niche Construction: How Life Contributes to Its Own Evolution.
In this episode, we focus on Niche Construction. We start by talking about physics and the second law of thermodynamics, what life is, the origin of life on Earth, living organisms as active and purposeful systems, and information and knowledge-gaining processes. We then discuss niche construction, how organisms coevolve with their environments, the origin and evolution of ecosystems, teleology, and developmental and sociocultural processes in social species. Finally, we talk about how humans are currently contributing to the evolution of life on Earth, and the extended evolutionary synthesis.

Dr. Joshua Glasgow is Professor in (and Chair of) the Philosophy Department at Sonoma State University. Dr. Glasgow works on a variety of topics in moral, political, and legal philosophy. His publications have covered a variety of issues concerning ethics, the good life, race and racism, language, law, mind, and more. His latest book is The Significance Impulse: On the Unimportance of Our Cosmic Unimportance.
In this episode, we focus on The Significance Impulse. We discuss what the “significance impulse” is, and what it means for something to be important or ordinary. We talk about nihilism, pessimism, and absurdism. We discuss how most achievements are collective and not individual, fame and wealth, and whether it is possible to be remembered forever. We talk about whether the lives of important people are better than ordinary lives. Finally, we discuss things that are “worthwhile in themselves”, what makes life meaningful, how our unimportance relieves us of anxiety, and how to avoid mediocrity.
