So why are the town elders fuming mad?

The Auzen Lupin Podcast is coming out next week.

Wednesdays are about to get even better. Keep an ear open for our new show.

If you are looking for an excellent philosophy podcast, here is the show for you.

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophical podcast by four guys who are at one point set on doing philosophy for a living.

For each episode, they pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy.

You don't have to know any philosophy or even have read the text they're discussing talking about to follow and enjoy.

With a 13 year plus catalog of episodes, the Partially Examined Life has probably covered any philosophical topic you're interested in, from practical ethics to the theoretical foundations of science.

They go deep into the history of philosophy while making it personal and funny.

Join the over 45 million downloads already pondering with the Partially Examined Life.

Find new episodes wherever you stream your podcasts or at PartiallyExaminedLife.com.

And have a something completely different.

This week, we're beginning a 12 part series of the Zane Gray Classic Riders of the Purple Sage.

Riders of the Purple Sage is consistently shortlisted as one of the best Westerns of all time.

Zane Gray was instrumental in defining the Western novel and Purple Sage was his best-selling book.

Multiple films, TV adaptations, and even an opera have all been made of Jane Withersdien's courageous story.

Gray also wrote a sequel to it, The Rainbow Trail. I hope you like it.
