Philosophers In Space - 0G34: The Good Place and Moral Luck

Well, the cats out of the bag now. Everyone knows this is really The Bad Show. You'd think all the bickering between Thomas and I would have given it away sooner, but it's a relief to have it out in the open.

Kidding! Everything is great! We're doing season two of The Good Place, a show we both think is great, and we're talking about Moral Luck, something you will all soon think is great! I strongly recommend the paper this week, I think it's an acceptable level of readable and has some real gems in it:

The Goods from the Woods - Episode #223 – “Presidential Kombat” with Laura Crawford

In this episode, the Goods from the Woods Boys, guest host Sam Harter, and VERY SPECIAL return guest, comedian Laura Crawford, go back to that old chestnut: "WHO'D WIN IN A FIGHT?". This time it's a Great American Bash as we try to figure out who'd win in a bracket-based championship fighting tournament amongst former chief executives. Will John Adams' nerd rage overcome Warren G. Harding's drunken master style? Will Abraham Lincoln's height and farm strength be able to triumph over Richard Nixon's tricky tactics behind the ref's back? Can we get JFK to quit plowing celebs and East German spies long enough to actually fight anyone? Only one way to find out! Listen to this episode and follow Laura on all forms of social media @CrawfordComic.  Song of the week is "The Death and Resurrection of George W. Bush" by Jonny Moze. Follow him on Twitter @JayMoze.  Rivers is @RiversLangley  Dr. Pat is @PM_Reilly Sam is @SlamHarter Mr. Goodnight is @SepulvedaCowboy  Pick up a Goods from the Woods t-shirt at: http://prowrestlingtees.com/TheGoodsPod

Ologies with Alie Ward - Classical Archaeology (ANCIENT ROME) with Darius Arya

If you LIVE for drama, you will LOVE dead Romans. Wars, murders, opulence and uprisings: a little something for everyone. Classical Archaeologist and TV host Dr. Darius Arya dishes about priceless garbage piles, lead poisoning, ancient political scandals, pottery graveyards, unearthing sculptures, tomb discoveries, what's under European cities, and how Roman society was a little like America these days. But also a lot different. And what we can learn from it.

Non-stick pans are incredibly convenient -- they save hours of time, and make cooking less labor-intensive. Some might say the technology sounds too good to be true! As it turns out, that just might be the case. Tune in to learn how 3M, DuPont and other corporate entities conspired (for decades) to suppress research indicating serious medical dangers posed by Teflon and related substances.
