This episode of the Popperian Podcast features an interview that Jed Lea-Henry conducted with Paul Levinson. They speak about the philosophy of W.W. Bartley, the history of comprehensive rationalism, Karl Popper’s critical rationalism, why Bartley thought that all such theories were inadequate and unnecessarily opened the door for irrationalism, and how Bartley’s own theory of pancritical rationalism corrected these errors.
