2. An atheist’s God: the paradox of Spinoza - The Philosopher’s Zone - ABC Radio National (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

   This week on The Philosopher’s Zone, we meet Spinoza’s god, which might seem an odd thing to do. Baruch Spinoza, one of the greatest philosophers of his day, was expelled from the Amsterdam synagogue in 1656 because of his unorthodox religious views. Ever since, he has been regarded as the great atheist of the Western tradition. Yet he mentions God very often throughout his writings. So this week, we try to reconcile the paradox in Spinoza between his perceived atheism and his constant references to the divine.

3. Philosophers Zone - 18 June 2011 - The evil of the daleks

   They are among the most loved, or most feared, villains in science fiction. But what is it that makes Daleks such great baddies? What constitutes evil and why do the Daleks represent a very specific idea about rationality and morality? This week, we talk to a philosopher about what the Daleks have to tell us - in their mechanical, screechy voices - about who we are.
