The concept of the Thinking Out Loud podcast is to work through issues of political, philosophical, cultural, and social interest in an unscripted fashion. Although I do not claim expertise on most of these issues, I will bring to bear various philosophical thinkers and the knowledge I have gathered in my studies. Above all, I want to model what it is like to think for oneself, with all the mistakes, verbal slips, and intellectual humility that this entails. Please, join me on this journey and add to the conversation!
