In this series of podcasts, we explore what it's like to think and walk in someone else's shoes. You've given up on your mission of pleasing the divine being/s and saving others. So, what do you believe now, how do you live and what do you care about? There is a smorgasbord of world views and stances to choose from. In this session, we met with Michael Dello-Iacovo, who describes himself as a Sentientist. Our guest gives his Sentientist's perspective on life with participants asking him a variety of questions.

Michael attended a Catholic Jesuit school in Adelaide for most of his schooling and believed in everything associated with the religion. Around the age of 18, he had a rather painful transition from Catholic to outspoken atheist. Michael completed a Bachelor of Science and is currently finishing a PhD in space science. Valuing the application of reason to doing good, he became involved in the effective altruism movement in 2015 and served as CEO of Effective Altruism Australia in 2016. Michael has also been an active member of the Animal Justice Party, including running in several elections, to further the cause of animal protection.
