Not 42, The REAL Meaning of Life the Universe, and Everything
What is Truth? What matters in the universe and why? What does it really mean to be a human being? And what about God? This series of eight podcasts is the result of more than twenty years of study into philosophy, evolutionary theory and science. They represent a distinctive way of thinking about the BIG questions. But... these podcasts might challenge some of your most cherished and deeply held beliefs. You have been warned!
