After discussing the meaning of the universe, it’s time for some philosophy, and I can think of no better guests to have that discussion with than THOMAS CATHCART and DANIEL KLEIN. They met decades ago in the Harvard Philosophy Department and have gone on to write one of the flat out funniest AND intelligent books on philosophy this side of Satre’s Nausea. In person, they are the equivalent of trying to discuss Schopenhauer with Bob and Ray…only funnier. Don’t miss this somewhat out of control interview. Cathcart and Klein’s book is PLATO AND A PLATYPUS WALK INTO A BAR: UNDERSTANDING PHILOSOPHY THROUGH JOKES.
