Hi again. Here is the second podcast for the course. In this podcast I will discuss both of the essays for this coming week, as well as introducing you to our next film, The Matrix. Before you listen, be sure to download the first reading, Descartes’ Meditations on First Philosophy, specifically Meditations 1 and 2, and read it along with our second reading, from William Poundstone's Labyrinths of Reason. (Both of these books are available for check out in EvCC's library, by the way.) Links to both of these essays are provided in the course calendar, which, if you haven't already downloaded, you can get in the previous entry to this blog. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email me using the link to the right.

See you on Thursday!
You can also download the podcast by control-clicking (right-clicking) on the link below and then add it to iTunes. That way you can then listen to it offline or transfer it over to an iPod, iPhone, or iPad to play at your convenience.

Am I the only one who does not see any links when the podcast is referring to links? They are referred to as if they should just be visible, but I see nothing.

Sorry about the confusion here as well. The podcasts used to include links, but that is no longer the case. I'm making a transition to a new website hosting service and that's no longer possible. The podcasts will be audio-only.

Thanks for the comments. I was wondering about those links too. The questions raised in the pod cast made me think of Captain Kirk telling the evil female robots made by Harry Mudd in order to shut them down, "I always lie. I am telling the truth."
