My guest this week is Aidan McGlynn, a senior lecturer in philosophy at University of Edinburgh and author of the book Epistemic Injustice: An Introduction. We discuss the various facets of epistemic injustice, the impact it has on people's lives, and how we should think about debates over objective truth.

My guest this week is Darrel Ray, an organizational psychologist and founder of Recovering from Religion, the Secular Therapy Project, and the Institute for Secular Leadership. Darrel has a new leadership course aimed at helping secular community organizers gain practical tools for thinking about everything from big picture mission questions to the nitty gritty of setting up meetings and delegating work. We also discuss how to deal with schisms and social issues that impact our groups.

My returning guest this week is the most pleasant of bureaucrats ever to serve the the blood god, associate professor of philosophy at the London school of economics and political science Liam Kofi Bright. Folks might not know this, but when Liam isn’t verifying verification or whatever epistemologists do, he writes some hilarious fanfic about philosophy and logistics in the world of 40k. Since I’m convinced that 40k is somehow central to understanding modern politics, I’ve asked Liam on to help me parse that intuition.
