The Philosopher’s Zone

by ABC Radio National


http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/philosopherszone/

The Philosopher’s Zone, hosted by Joe Gelonesi, takes philosophy into much broader territory than the name might suggest – in a lot of ways, it’s a show about popular culture and the everyday world, with philosophy as its anchor.
