Esther Lightcap Meek is an author, philosopher, and professor emeritus at Geneva College. She is known for her writing on Epistemology; Books such as A Little Manual for Knowing, Longing to Know, and Loving to know. We talked about her model of knowledge known as Covenant Epistemology and the seemingly countercultural idea that knowledge itself could point to God. This unusual take on knowledge rings true and is gaining ground.

Howard Bloom is a thinker, author, scientist, music publicist and much more. He has written on atheism, cultural history, and anthropology. He is very hard to pin down! In this, our second conversation, I wanted to begin to get a feel for his style of transcendent atheism and see how it has informed his life's path. I enjoyed this conversation as we each represented different perspectives on religion and God. This is not a debate!

John Vervaeke teaches Cognitive Science at the University of Toronto and spends a lot of time modelling deep, constructive conversation (dialogos as he calls it) with collaborators on YouTube. He was a huge inspiration to this podcast and an early guest. We discussed dialogos and how the ideas of sacred and profane might translate into a secular philosophy.
John's YouTube series, Awakening from the Meaning Crisis and The Elusive I (currently being released in installments) are great ways to start thinking about thinking and conceptualizing the self.
