ORly Radio Show 61 for Friday June 5th, 2015 - Dan Fincke - Camels with Hammers
Welcome to ORly Radio listeners to the show where we dismantle the current events for your edutainment through mostly rational conversations that make you go ‘Oh Really’! I’m your host Andy Cowen.
Errata From Last Week: We make mistakes. Please, if you find one, pause the podcast, and send us a note. orlyradiopodcast@gmail.com or phone it in 470-222-6759
This is a very different show. More of a fireside chat. Andy spends a hour and a half getting to know an actual philosopher and a hell of a nice guy. This will not be the last time they talk.
It was pretty freewheeling, but we discussed how he got into philosophy and how that led him to teach (which to him are permanently linked). We touch on how the current climate of higher education is in reference to liberalism, feminism, and so much more. His love of doritos and his new love that is taking him overseas where he will still be teaching to those that would sign up with him in small educational groups. It is proving successful and serves a valuable niche in the continuing education space. There was too much to fit into one show with the time we had, so there may be more at a later time. We both had a great time, and we hope you do too.
You can find him on the internet at the following places. Tell him we sent ya.
