What happens when a philosopher extraordinaire joins us to tackle controversial topics and ethical dilemmas? You get a captivating episode of Good Take, Bad Take, featuring our guest, Diego Silva, a senior lecturer in bioethics who brings unique perspectives to light! Join us as we explore the implications of anonymous submissions for the Journal of Controversial Ideas, reflect on how power is taken and consolidated, and analyze how we would handle a situation involving a child damaging property in a supermarket.

But that's just the beginning! We're also diving into the controversy between the Saudi-backed Live golf tour and the PGA, discussing the potential dangers of government involvement in sports. Then, we'll shift gears to examine the ethics of public health vending machines in New York City and challenge the popular notion of taking 10,000 steps a day for health reasons. Don't miss this thought-provoking episode that will leave you questioning the world around you and reconsidering how you approach ethical dilemmas in everyday life.
