Episode 028: But Is It Science? | Since the dawn of time, man has peered out humbly at the world through his eyeballs and tried to make sense of it all in some systematic fashion.

CleanEpisode 027: It’s Gonna Be a Shaving Thing | Progress is a tricky thing. It doesn’t always go like you think it should.

Episode 026: Digg Phallusophy | Have you ever actually rubbed elbows with a celebrity? Everyone talks about doing that, but seriously, have you ever actually gone up to a star and asked “can I rub my elbow against your elbow?” Hmm… Well, in any case, we got to do[...] | 3/19/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 025: Squidalien | Fear not, good mortals! Bad Philosophy is not gone. There’s just, y’know, this thing called “college.” Maybe you’ve heard of it? Well, in any case, it tends to take priority over this show (at least for now), and that[...] | 3/17/09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 024: Slumming With Destiny | We're back! Pardon the week off. We had to deal with a rather unexpected chainsaw-wielding polar bear invasion, but all is good now... except for Kevin's leg ...

Episode 022: Baldwin Bonanza | Title psych! In this episode we actually focused on the man, the myth, the legend himself, Mr. Joss Whedon, and all his crazy nephews (shows).

Customer Reviews
I love BF!
I've been listening to this podcast since the beginning. The discussions are great and fascinating. I love Kevin's opinions and Stephen's leadership. The guests are always interesting, too. I love BF and recommend it to all my friends and anyone who likes philosophy. It's very laid-back, unlike the condescending hoitiness found in the rest of the philosophy podcasts on iTunes. Keep up the good work! :-)
Perfectly horible ;)
BF has risen to the top of my anticipated podcast list. I check your stream daily to see if there is some new musing for me to disagree with. That's right, I said disagree. You guys are great, and I love the fact that you are want to find the Truth, even if that Truth is that there is none. I however disagree with several of your apriori and opasterori aswell as your epystimology. This is most clear in your philosophy of mind. Now then all that said, don't change for my sake. I love the show. I have no problem whatsoever lisaning and even enjoying the propositions of people whom I disagree with. I very well might be the one who is wrong, but I'm comfterable enjoying somthing that I believe to be a mistake. Furthermore I love the format of your discussions, you guys are allmost like a meta-mind a microcosm of thethoughts of one indavidule that goes compleetly unnoticed dew to the familiarity of ones one mind, it's cool to be able to get inside someoneels's mind if only to see your own more clearly. Never undervalue the all important tangeant. I have often been lisaning to BF and you guys change the subject before Im totally done thinking the previas one through. To which I simply respond by pausing the podcast, the more tangeants you employ, the more time I can enjoy you.
Thanks for a great show.
Keep up the good work.
