American Infidel

Psychologist, author and songwriter Elliott Ingersoll, descendant of the family of the great 19-century agnostic orator Robert G. Ingersoll, tells us about his TED talk challenging the notion of "chemical imbalances" in the brain, which, he says, can be better treated with talk therapy than with drugs. After hearing his performance of his song "American Infidel," we introduce a drawing for free downloads of the audiobook of Dan's book GOD: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction by listening to Richard Dawkins reading his Foreword. We also are treated to an in-studio reading from the book by Dan Barker and Buzz Kemper, who pays the role of "God."
