  • Why Christianity Needs to Help Save Democracy (with Jonathan Rauch)

  • Rational and Religious (with Ross Douthat)
    How can we explain the world's underlying order? How does consciousness emerge? And why do people from such different cultures have such similar near-death experiences? Listen as Ross Douthat, New York Times columnist and author of the new book Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious, argues that these and other unanswerable questions underscore his argument for the rationality of religious belief. He and EconTalk's Russ Roberts discuss Douthat's reasons for embracing faith with confidence, why science only bolsters his belief, and why he thinks that more religion would be a good thing for society.

  • The Music and Magic of John and Paul (with Ian Leslie)
    At the heart of the success of the Beatles was the creative chemistry and volatile friendship between John Lennon and Paul McCartney.

  • Do All Creatures, Great and Small, and Made From Silicon, Have Rights? (with Jeff Sebo)
    Should monkeys have the same rights as humans? What about elephants, ants, or invertebrates? NYU philosopher Jeff Sebo makes the case for expanding your moral circle to many more beings than you might expect, including those based on silicon chips. Listen as Sebo and EconTalk's Russ Roberts discuss to whom and what we owe moral consideration, how we determine a being's intrinsic moral significance, and why we have ethical obligations to others, anyway. They also discuss human exceptionalism--the idea that humans should be prioritized over other beings.
