In the final episode of this series we discuss death - a topic we don’t talk about enough in western society, but which is important to think about - both for our own sake and for those we love.
We ask what death is, and what happens after we die. We explore why people have certain beliefs about death. We then consider how we can think about our own deaths in a more effective way, and get more out of our lives by doing so.
We also discuss how we should think about other people‘s deaths, and what a ’good death‘ looks like. We discuss some personal stories of how we have experienced, and planned for, the deaths of loved ones and the important lessons we’ve learned from this.

This week we discuss the big topic of happiness, via goth woodlice and Star Trek (of course).
What is happiness? Should we be striving for it in our lives? What are the things that make people happy - and that don’t? Should we be focussing our societies more on the aim of promoting people’s happiness - and what would a ‘happy society’ look like?

This week we’re looking at the topic of morality.
We’re explore what we mean by ‘good’ and ‘bad’, and whether these are real things. We’ll ask whether human beings are moral creatures or not. And we’ll go on to explore what it means to be good, and how we can live in line with our values.
In a surprise turn, we also explore the 10 commandments of Star Trek!

In this episode we explore the idea of belief. Not just what we believe about the origins of the universe, but also the more practical question of what we should believe about the many messages and views we encounter around us in day to day life.
We discuss what each of us believes about the world, and how we came to form these beliefs. We also ask what steps people can take to form more realistic and better informed beliefs - about anything.

A nice easy start to the series, in which we explore the meaning of life and solve it in 45 minutes.*
In this episode we ask what people mean when they talk about the meaning of life. Is there an ultimate meaning? And what are the things that actually do give people meaning in their lives?
