Museums are a particularly interesting case of a so-called public good. This week, we discuss the origins of museums, controversy regarding historical artifacts, a way they could exist without public support, and as always a few tangents.

Politics is a part of life. Art imitates life. It may not even be possible to write a work of fiction without some form of politics. However, in our increasingly polarized culture, the form it takes is getting more overt, and it may be ruining fiction.

This week, we examine the phenomenon of vicarious living, including both the lethargic cycle of watching others achieve without doing things oneself as well as the toxic parental desire to live through one's children.

Consciousness is perhaps the most mysterious concept in all of philosophy. If it weren't for the fact that we possess it, we probably wouldn't even know it exists. People have been arguing about it since the very beginning of philosophy. This week, although we have been talking about it privately for years, we are bringing our arguments public so you can share in the frustration of this slippery idea.

There is somewhat of a culture struggle between those who want to see humans venture out into space and explore the galaxy and those who instead want to focus on a simple life and resourcefulness here on Earth. This week, we contemplate the ramifications of either of these choices.
Apologies for audio issues this week. We had some technical difficulties in the studio, so you might hear a couple of drop-outs.

This week, we revisit the topic of justice. Rather than enumerating the various goals and conceptions of justice, we instead explore hypothetical situations to see how people's intuitions and feelings led us to the systems of justice we see today.

Warning: we spend a fair amount of time discussing video games in this episode.
This week, we got talking about how game developers try to do everything when the classics all stick to a core concept. This led us into the broader topic of keeping things simple versus trying to be everything.
