One of my favourite philosophers was interviewed recently on one of my favourite podcasts. I don't know how Alan Litchfield pulls it off to get such good guests on his podcast, 'The Malcontent's Gambit', but he seems consistent in that ability.
This podcast features Stephen Law, who is author of a number of books including 'Believing Bullshit' and a former speaker at Oxford Skeptics in the Pub. Stephen will also be noticeable in the annual Oxford event called Think Week, where he will be in discussion with Richard Dawkins. Tickets sold out quickly, as is common for these Dawkins events in Oxford! (Yes - I have got one, thank you.)
Given his track record, being acknowledged as one of the few people who have significantly defeated William Lane Craig in a debate, I think the discussion with Dawkins will be interesting.
Without having to speculate about future events, I highly recommend The Malcontent's Gambit podcast. In this interview, Law dismissed the Euthyphro Dilemna before going on to talk about the 'evil god hypothesis', which turns out to be difficult to contest.
