Illusionism as Scientism with Professor David Lindeman

from Philosophy With Ralph Hosted by Ralph Lamberti / David Lindeman

In this inaugural episode, I speak with Professor David Lindeman about consciousness, objectivity, and much more. After laying out some background information, I argue that illusionism loses its appeal with the realization of science's blind spot. Professor Lindeman played devil's advocate, pushing me to defend my position, and we rounded out the podcast with a fascinating discussion about the latest theories of consciousness. Thank you to Professor Lindeman for speaking with me, and thank you all for listening!
