Ep. 127 - Content Externalism and Putnam's Anti Brain-in-a-Vat Arg. w/Dr. Sanford Goldberg

In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Sanford Goldberg to discuss his work on Hilary Putnam's reply to the brain-in-a-vat skeptical scenario. We discuss the idea that meaning just ain't in the head, i.e. content or semantic externalism, and much more. This was a really fascinating one and I hope to have many more conversations with Dr. Goldberg as he has thoughts on so many things!

Ep. 126 - Tackling the Boredom Objection to the Afterlife w/Dr. Paul Gould

In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Paul Gould for a third time. This time we cover some of his work on the boredom objection to eternal or everlasting life. This argument has become more and more popular lately and can be summarized as "I don't want to live forever because you would get so bored" and is closely related to the thought that it is the scarcity and finitude of life that makes it worth living. Paul absolutely demolishes these arguments.    Check out more of Paul's work here: http://www.paul-gould.com/ If you like this podcast, then support it on Patreon for $1, $3, or $5 a month.
