We had ourselves another debate and it was intense, and poorly moderated. Jamie and I break it down, and also go into the question that seemed a lot more relevant last week: would we vote for Bloomberg if he's the candidate to face Trump in the general? Find out! Download Here

It's time for listener questions! It's been far too long so some of these are older, but they're very worthwhile to discuss still. First up, why do we prefer means testing for Yang's UBI but not free tuition to public universities? Then, was there no evidence that Dr. Ford ever met Kavanaugh? Should Franken be able to make a comeback? Why do daycare workers make so little? (insert heated debate about Bernie supporters...) Then finally, some questions about inner monologue! Download Here

Well we took a week off of politics and a WHOLE bunch of politics happened, so we need to do some catch-up! ***Jamie had some severe audio problems. Due to a family trip, I don't have the ability to re-record so I figured it was better to release than not have an episode this week. Apologies for the quality issues. Download Here

... because one of your beloved hosts of SIO does not! Needless to say, this was a mind blowing realization to that person. We talk about the extraordinary differences in human internal experience, and some of the current science and philosophy on the topic. This was really one of my favorite episodes in SIO history!

Ben Burgis teaches philosophy at Rutgers. He also writes for Jacobin, and delivers regular essays to his patrons, in addition to appearing on the Michael Brooks show regularly. He recently wrote a book called Give Them an Argument: Logic for the Left. We discuss his book, the left in general, and the arguments over Bernie being endorsed by Joe Rogan. ***due to a number of technical issues before and during the recording, we ran out of time and the interview had to end a bit abruptly. Apologies for that!*** Download Here
