# Philosophy for the People Page: https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184 Text version: https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184.md RSS feed: https://rss.libsyn.com/shows/430809/destinations/3591045.xml Official site: https://sites.libsyn.com/430809 Author: Patrick Flynn Episodes: 140 ## Resource Philosophy for the People's mission is an educational program aimed at overcoming the paucity of serious, fair-minded, and accessible philosophical discourse available to a popular audience. Though we are ourselves dedicated to the Catholic intellectual tradition, we are likewise committed to exploring ideas from all rigorous traditions of philosophizing (scholastic, classical, analytic, and phenomenological). We pursue this mission by providing long-form guided readings of great texts, discussions with expert guests, our own open-ended philosophical discussions of issues and thinkers, live question and answer opportunities, in depth lecture courses, and our own articles and book-length writings. Philosophy for the People's pedagogical materials will be provided either without charge or for minimal cost to assure provision of broad access to first-rate philosophical education. ## Machine-readable JSON: https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184 Markdown: https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184.md ## Episodes - [Is Hell Just? w/ Ethan Muse](https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184/is-hell-just-w-ethan-muse) — 2026-07-16T13:21:00+00:00 - [Why Thomism Still Matters w/ Dr. Gaven Kerr](https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184/why-thomism-still-matters-w-dr-gaven-kerr) — 2026-03-31T13:27:00+00:00 - [Aquinas's Five Ways Are Stronger Than You Think (w/ Dr. Rob Koons)](https://stenobird.com/podcast/philosophy-for-the-people-5635184/aquinas-s-five-ways-are-stronger-than-you-think-w-dr-rob-koons) — 2026-01-13T13:05:00+00:00 - [Can Evolution Fit With Christianity?
