Brilliant concept! I love listening to the show and the interesting stories that are shared along with the laughs. It's not just comedy, but history that is shared and you'll always learn something new and interesting about some of the most popular and entertaining comics around today and of the past. It's a great listen while I'm doing my daily commute and I appreciate all the hard work and effort that must go into planning each episode. Keep it up Danny!!

I found this podcast not too long ago and have been ravenously going through the past episodes. Some are no longer available here but are purchasable, so what’d I do? I went to the iTunes Store and bought one of the albums. The host knows how to probe for further clarification from his guests and it’s enjoyable to hear he and the comics he’s interviewing discover these philosophers for the first time to discuss. I haven’t even finished going through the backlog yet and I’ve already gone back and listened to the Jackie Martling and Pat Cooper episodes multiple times!

I listened to part of one. A comedian who never heard of Thomas Szasz pontificates on Szasz’s contentions basin on a couple of sentences Szasz wrote. It’s hard to imagine anything more idiotic.

I just want to hear stimulating discussion about philosophy — not shallow comments. There are many podcasts that put on a comedic act and I wouldn’t mind it if it didn’t take away from the discussion so much. It can be tough to leave politics out of philosophy too but if I’m hearing of it in a podcast where I’m not looking to hear about it, I want objectivity, not personal bias. Just not my cup of tea when I want to learn ab philosophy.
