PvI#92: Postale au Naturale w/ Greg McBrayer

Greg teaches philosophy (and is Interim Provost) at Ashland, loves Xenophon, and runs a podcast. We reflect on the dangers of radon and other “natural” things. How might one of our government agencies become more natural, and would we want that? Are fart jokes the most naturally funny kind? Then, Greg the trucker visits Empty Street and embezzles dead mules.

Listen to The Partially Examined Life’s Cratylus episode about “natural language.” Listen to Greg on his podcast talking about Xenophon and Xenophon’s Socrates.

Bill was thrust from the final portion of the call, so Mark and Greg engage in some philosophy podcast shop talk. He returns for the Post-Game after Greg’s departure (actually, it was the next day) to reflect on the episode and specifically identify the naturalistic fallacy.
