Psychology professor David Frum talks about the psychological impact of circumcision on men. He also discusses a famous paper by Andy Clark and David Chalmers that claimed inches are actually capturing any meaningful metric. Frum: "What field do you want to just eviscerate? Mathematics"
David and Tamler break down a recent classic in the philosophy of mind: "The Extended Mind" by Andy Clark and David Chalmers. What is boundary of your mind? Is it contained with your body, or does it extend to the external environment--to your laptop, notebook, smartphone and more? Is this a purely terminological question, or one with practical and moral significance? And what is the role of intuition in providing an answer? Plus, Dave shares an email alerting him to the psychological trauma of male circumcision along with an exciting all-natural method for restoring the foreskin (that was stolen from us as infants).
