There are three simple, essential critiques of materialism that seriously jeopardise its legitimacy.This is a snippet from yesterday's episode, Is The World Physical?

There's no shortage of big questions this month, and today we discuss whether the world is physical or not.This is part of my February philosophy series in which I aim not to promote a creed or doctrine but to honestly explore and inquire into these questions and encourage this in you.
