In addition to Mark, Wes, Seth & Dylan from the popular podcast of the same name, join celebrity guests Lucy Lawless and Dr. Drew, philosophical heavyweights Peter "Animal Liberation" Singer and Patricia Churchland, and many others, as they dig deep into non-western texts such as Ibn Sina and The Tao Te Ching, under-represented philosophers, such as bell hooks and James Baldwin, and topics from Race and Religion to Art, the Free Market and the Nature of Reality.
