Quick read up on the difference between a dog and a bat for Mondays episode! #philosophy #philsky #philosophysky

It’s Wemember Wednesday! Time to go back and listen to episode 6 “When Will I die?” to find consolation in four-dimensional time, infinite real universes and the fact that somewhere there’s a universe where you cheat the Grim Reaper every single time. #philosophysky #philsky #modalphilosophy

This week is a special for fans of space, astronomy, sci-fi and World War 2 history as we ask "Who looks after Outer Space?" (thanks Finley, age 7, for the question). Features Kessler Syndrome, if you need something else to worry about at night! Photo by Ian Bowkett

New episode day! Today we ask children's author @iszi.com how on Earth she writes about time travel for under 12s in this possible universe where thinking about it is so difficult. And most importantly "Is Goodnight Sweetheart still acceptable in 2026?" #philsky #philosophysky #podcast

True analytic philosophy has never been tried

It's actually very easy to turn an analytic philosopher into a continental one. Just use Photoshop. #philosophysky #philsky

It's new episode day! After getting caught doing something naughty, Steve's daughter tries to escape blame by asking "Is my brain a separate thing that tells my body what to do?". We asked Plato, Cavendish, Descartes & more to answer. drstevecross.squarespace.com/podcast #philsky #philosophysky

I never subscribed to the idea that those born pre modern era might have had no sense of selfhood. Then historians show us their teeth and having had some dental pain I am convinced that before access to analgesics it probably was possible to experience life without a sense of individual identity.

THE QUESTION BANK IS EMPTY! Know a kid who asks questions that can't be answered (like "what's the best favourite colour to have?" or "who looks after outer space?")? We need their help. You even get a certificate for the fridge! #philosophysky #philsky #podcast #philosophypodcast

We just had a lovely recording session answering “Who Looks After Outer Space?”. It’ll be episode 11 - out in 4 weeks. Full of leaky intuition pumps, camouflaged trolley problems and Steve saying “isn’t that the plot of [scifi reference]?” Photo by Ian Bowkett #philsky #philosophysky #podcast

"Who's doing the philosophy?" you ask. There's only one brain that could handle the intensity of a six-year-old's questioning, and that's Christabel Cane.
