  Episode #7

  7 | Are numbers real? - Mary Leng

  Jul 29, 202652 minS1

  Mary Leng is a mathematical fictionalist, which is a philosopher who thinks mathematics is a useful fiction. This was a fascinating discussion on the epistemological challenges facing Platonism and how to make sense of fictionalism as an alternative. Our discussion ended with me trying out on Mary my view that mathematical knowledge is rooted in mystical experiences. Do you think she was convinced??? If you want to dig a bit deeper, there's a related article on my Substack . Mary's website “Galileo’s Error” is my book on consciousness and panpsychism. My book “Why? The Purpose of the Universe” explores the spiritual implications of panpsychism.

  5 | Is morality objective? - Mike Huemer

  Jul 6, 20261h 27m

  Mike Huemer is a great philosopher and a star of philosophy YouTube, and I loved this chat with him about whether morality is objective. I like to chat both to people who agree with me and to people who disagree with me. This was a mix of both. Here’s a prior debate Mike and had on whether taxation if theft (spoiler: it’s not).
