Ep. 56 - The Problem of Defining Philosophy | Great Ideas: Definition
In this episode I begin my solo series on the 102 great ideas of the Western Tradition, following Mortimer Adler's Syntopicon. Rather than just sticking with the problem of definition, I try to apply the problem to the field of philosophy. I hope you like it!

Ep. 53 - What's the Deal with Biblical Counseling and Psychology? w/Dr., Pastor Warren Lamb
In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast Dr. and Pastor Warren Lamb comes on to school us on the relationship between biblical counseling and psychology. Warren has earned a PhD in psychology and keeps up with the psychological research, but has opted instead to practice biblical counseling instead. In this episode, he explains his reasons for his move as I ask him a spate of questions and potential misgivings which I've heard from biblical counseling detractors.

Ep. 52 - Jordan Peterson, Proverbs, and the Philosopher-King w/Dr. Owen Anderson
In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, we are joined once more by Dr. Owen Anderson, professor of philosophy and religious studies at Arizona State University, to discuss the conception of wisdom in the book of Proverbs and how that relates to Plato's take on wisdom. We also discuss Plato's philosopher-king and Jordan Peterson's take on wisdom and religion. We also try to answer whether or not King Solomon rightly fit the description of Plato's Philosopher-King (though ~400 prior to Plato's famous depiction).

Ep. 48 - Why Panpsychism & Emergentism Cannot Make Sense of the Unity of Consciousness w/Dr. Brandon Rickabaugh
In part 3 of my conversation with Dr. Brandon Rickabaugh on his doctoral dissertation, we go over some of his arguments from the unity of phenomenal consciousness against a Panpsychist and Emergentist theories of mind. If you don't know what any of that means, fear not, Brandon will define his terms for you, and if you still don't get them, then go back and listen to episode 45 where he spends a whole hour defining and explaining the terms needed for this episode and part 2.
