  • How-To Heretic
    Doug is joined by Dan and Mark, hosts of a podcast called The How-To Heretic. We’ll talk about where atheists fit in American society, and about teaching people skills for a post-religion lifestyle.
    53 min
  • The Ends of the World
    Since first evolved on earth more than four billion years ago, it has passed in and out of existence five times. Make that six. An extinction event is happening right now. So what can we learn about the previous ones?
    52 min
  • Monty Python's Life of Brian
    Tuesday, we're talking about something completely different: The Monty Python troupe's comedic send up of ancient Jerusalem and 1970s England told through the story of a boy mistaken for a savior.
    53 min
  • The First Christmas
    Monday, we're talking about the story of Jesus Christ's birth. What happened on that first Christmas day, and how have we celebrated it for two thousand years?
    52 min
  • The Science of Compulsions
    Friday, we're talking about your compulsions. Everyone has them. Maybe you're a neat freak, or maybe it's exercise. But compulsions don't necessarily mean your brain is broken. In fact, they're a perfectly natural response to anxiety.

  • The Real-life Laura Ingalls Wilder
    Thursday, we’re talking about the real-life Laura Ingalls Wilder and how her story compares to the mythic American history many of us absorbed through her wildly popular series The Little House books.
    53 min
  • The History of Christmas Traditions
    Wednesday, we're talking about Christmas and the bountiful customs that accompany it. Just why do we do stuff like wrap presents, hang lights, and drink eggnog? And why is it so darn commercial these days? (Hint: it's always been that way.)
    52 min
  • Wild Horse Country
    The wild horse is a majestic, beloved, and federally protected icon of the American frontier with a history as epic as the land it inhabits. It’s also the subject of heated controversy and dispute.
    52 min
  • Handel's Messiah
    We’ve just posted a film about an exquisite aria from Handel’s Messiah. So Friday, we’re talking about the oratorio. It’s a story with scandal, godliness, and of course, beautiful music.
