I host a podcast on food and nutrition. Below are some audio selections from the show.

Freethought and Skepticism

I used to do a podcast on freethought and skepticism called Leaders in Free Thought (or LiFT) that was an extension of the CSU student organization of the same name. I no longer produce that podcast, but the shows are still available on archive.org. Below are some of my favorite episodes.

My interview with Luke Muehlhauser, currently the executive director of MIRI (Machine Intelligence Research Institute), but back then he was just an information technologist with a strong interest in philosophy, rationality, and naturalism. [mp3]

My interview with Dan Barker, author and co-president (with his wife) of the Freedom From Religion Foundation. [mp3]

My interview with Dr. Darrel Ray, psychologist, author, and all-around cool guy. [mp3]

My discussion with Mark Edward, psychic, mentalist, and perhaps the most interesting man in the world. No, really. [mp3]

Discussions with Dr. Alastair Norcross and Joel MacClellan about animal welfare. [mp3]
