Great Philosophy Podcast
Via Leiter Reports, I have become aware of a great philosophy podcast: Why? Radio. The host is philosopher Jack Russell Weinstein (U of North Dakota), and he regularly discusses philosophical topics with excellent philosophers.
Previous shows include:
"On Self-Deception", with Amelie Rorty
"The Other Economics: Welfare, Development, and Justice", with Amartya Sen
"The Morality and Legality of Universal Health Care", with Sharona Hoffman
"On Forgiveness", with Charles L. Griswold, Jr.
"The Humanities in America: the Case for Public Funding", with Brenna Daugherty
On the next episode, Weinstein will discuss empathy, the Constitution, and sexual orientation with Martha Nussbaum.
You can subscribe to the podcast through iTunes.

Philosophical Disquisitions
Good lord -- how long has it been? Well, it looks as though things will slow down a bit around here within the next several days, and so I hope to get back to blogging again soon. In the meantime, I want to call attention to an excellent blog: Philosophical Disquisitions. The author (JohnD) is a Law PhD student in Ireland (specializing in philosophy of law), and he offers excellent expository posts on some of the best recent work in philosophy of religion. Be sure to add him to your Required Reading list.
