    Dr. Edward Hall is Norman E. Vuilleumier Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University. He works on a range of topics in metaphysics and epistemology that overlap with philosophy of science.

     

    In this episode, we talk about the philosophy of causation, and the structure of reality. We start by discussing different approaches in the philosophy of causation, and how to think about causation across different fields of science. We also discuss the metaphysical status of causation, and how it relates to the compositional structure of reality, and the concept of fundamental laws of nature. Finally, we discuss whether the causal structure of a process is intrinsic to it.

    Dr. Karl Friston is Professor of Imaging Neuroscience and Wellcome Principal Research Fellow of Imaging Neuroscience at University College London. Dr. Friston is a theoretical neuroscientist and authority on brain imaging. He invented statistical parametric mapping (SPM), voxel-based morphometry (VBM) and dynamic causal modelling (DCM). His main contribution to theoretical neurobiology is a free-energy principle for action and perception.

     

    In this episode, we explore the Free Energy Principle, and how to go from physical systems to brains and cognition. We start by discussing what the Free Energy Principle is, the history behind its development, and concepts like Markov blankets, internal and external states, blanket states, circular causality, and autonomous states. We talk about the differences between living and non-living systems, and the existential imperative to reduce predicting error. We also discuss concepts like self-organization and hierarchy in nervous systems. We discuss what we can learn about the brain through neuroimaging, and how specialized the brain

    is. Finally, we talk about how we can integrate the microscopic aspects of brain physiology with a more abstract understanding of the mind, like what we
    have in psychiatry and psychology.

    Dr. Tobias Gerstenberg is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, where he leads the Causality in Cognition Lab (CICL). Dr. Gerstenberg's research is highly interdisciplinary. It combines ideas from philosophy, linguistics, computer science, and the legal sciences to better understand higher-level cognitive phenomena such as causal inference and moral judgment.

     

    In this episode, we talk about causal cognition. We first discuss what it is, and what it means to attribute causality. We talk about counterfactual thinking, intuitive ideas about causality, causation by omission, and how people single out “the” cause. We also talk about causal learning in continuous-time settings, and then get into how causal cognition connects to attributions of moral responsibility, and how people deal with knowledgeable versus ignorant agents, and the role that intentions play. Finally, we discuss the relationship between intuitive physics and intuitive psychology, and moral judgment.

    Dr. Timothy Weaver is a Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Davis. Dr. Weaver studies human evolution, with a focus on the origins, evolution, and disappearance of Neandertals, and the related topic of the origins of humans who were

    anatomically and behaviorally modern. While his emphasis is on the later phases of human evolution, he has also worked on earlier periods, mostly in the context of the evolution of human bipedal walking and running and childbirth.

     

    In this episode, we start by talking about the evolution of the human cranium, and we go through a timeline from the last common ancestor with chimpanzees to H. sapiens. We discuss the factors that played a role in the evolution of the human cranium, and how the evolution of the cranium related to bipedalism and childbirth. We then talk about the origins and migrations of Neanderthals, contact and interbreeding between Neanderthals and H. sapiens, differences in the cranium between Neanderthals and H. sapiens, and how Neanderthals went extinct. Finally, we talk about changes in the cranium across the agricultural transition.

    Dr. Sheri Berman is a Professor of Political Science at Barnard College at Columbia University.  Her research interests include European history and politics; the development of democracy; populism and fascism; and the history of the left.  She has written about these topics for a wide variety of scholarly and non-scholarly publications, including the New York Times, The Washington Post, Foreign Policy, Foreign Affairs, and VOX.  She is the author of several books, including Democracy and Dictatorship in Europe: From the Ancient Regime to the Present Day.

     

    In this episode, we start by exploring the history of the left, and we talk about three main strands: socialism, communism, and social democracy. We talk about labor movements, and progressive neoliberalism. We discuss the current state of democracy across the globe, the recent rise of right-wing populism, and the relationship between populism and fascism. We also talk about how we can avoid democratic erosion, and the future of leftism.

Her latest book is Defending Pornography: Free Speech, Sex, and the Fight for Women's Rights.

     

    In this episode, we focus on Defending Pornography. We start by defining “pornography”. We then go through the main arguments put forward by anti-porn feminists, and the counterarguments used by the anti-censorship feminists. We discuss whether pornography is harmful to the viewers, how censoring porn can also target sexual education in schools, as well as LGBTQ+ people. We talk about the traits of people who are against pornography. We discuss paternalism in the context of pornography, and how censorship can harm porn performers. We talk about approaches such as legalization and decriminalization, and how we can fight against trafficking. Finally, we discuss how important it is to hear from the performers themselves.

    Louis Bachaud is a PhD student at the University of Kent and the University of Lille. His research investigates the history and sociology of science. In particular, he studies the contemporary (mis)understandings of evolutionary sciences and their appropriations in online debates around sex and gender.

     

    In this episode, we talk about the misuse of evolutionary science in the manosphere. We start by discussing what the manosphere is. We then explore sets of claims about female sexuality, the ovulatory cycle, gender roles, and “alpha males”. We talk about the possible motives of people who produce content for the manosphere, as well as the consumers. We discuss why evolutionary psychology is so popular. Finally, we talk about some of the ways we can fight back against the misuse of evolutionary science in the manosphere.

    Dr. Peter Etchells is Professor of Psychology and Science Communication at Bath Spa University, UK. His research looks at the behavioral and wellbeing effects of playing video games, and he is also interested in metascientific issues regarding best practice in digital technology effects research. He is the author of Lost in a Good Game, and more recently, Unlocked: The Real Science of Screen Time (and how to spend it better).


    In this episode, we focus on Unlocked. We start by talking about moral panics surrounding new technologies and where they stem from. We discuss what screen time is, the link between social media use and mental health, whether screen-based technologies affect our sleep or our ability to focus, and whether they can be addictive. Finally, we talk about how we should approach screen-based technologies.

    Dr. Jerald Mosley is a former California Supervising Deputy Attorney General, and he has been researching, writing and speaking on law and sex work. He is the author of Sex Workers and Their Clients: In Their Own Words.

     

    In this episode, we focus on Sex Workers and Their Clients. We start by discussing why it is important to consider the perspectives of sex workers and their clients, what a sex worker is, and the stigmatization of sex work. We then frame the debate between prohibitionists and some sex workers and sex-positive feminists, and explore claims surrounding the satisfaction and wellbeing of sex workers; whether sex work is a choice; sex trafficking; exploitation and empowerment; coercion and poverty; the prevalence of violence; objectification; and the claim that sex work is the product of patriarchy. We also talk about how sex workers describe their clients, and the role of sex-positive feminists who are not sex workers. We discuss common stereotypes about the clients, and the moralism of people who oppose sex work. Finally, we talk about approaches to sex work such as the “End Demand” approach, decriminalization, and how to prevent sex trafficking.
