Join the Philosophers as they examine the ideas of Existentialism with Lanier Anderson from Stanford University.

Existentialism

"The program that questions everything—except your intelligence."

This is not a lecture or a college course; it's philosophy in action!  From timeless philosophical questions about the ultimate nature of things to contemporary social and political issues, as well as our most fundamental beliefs about science, morality, and the human condition, Philosophy Talk invites you to challenge your assumptions and think about things in new ways.
