Oliver Thorne is an actor and educator, best known as the creator and host of the popular YouTube channel Philosophy Tube.

Boasting around half a million subscribers, Ollie's channel is notorious for its well-researched content and colourful presentation. With over six years of videos under his belt, it's fair to say

that Ollie is going above and beyond in his goal of giving away his philosophy degree

for free. In this episode, we'll be getting at the man behind Philosophy Tube,

discussing the role and responsibilities of those contributing to public-facing

philosophy.

When we present philosophy in the public sphere, what are our goals?

Should they be the same as those in the philosophy seminar room, our desire being rigorous, detailed and delicate contemplation,

or does public media demand something else?

In short, do we need to change our ways to make philosophy accessible?

As always, a very special thank you to the West Hill Endowment, Cullum St. Gabriel's,

and all of our patrons for supporting the show. In particular, thank you to David Lidgeness,

Dylan Kirby, Lily Hooper, Jim, Clare, Mr. T.

David, Dylan, Mr. T, Lily and Jim. We hope you never change your ways. You're perfect the way you are.

Well, nearly perfect. You could pose topless with a snake. That's a joke. Please don't do that. Hello and welcome to episode.

Hello and welcome to episode 68th of the Panpsychast.

I'm the man related to royalty, Mr. Jack Symes. I'm joined once again

by the man always impersonating Ben Shapiro, Mr. Andrew Horton. Hello. The white guy always

jerking off, Mr. Olly Marley. Hello. And the arsonist, Mr. Olly Thorn.

Very good. That's the fantastic intro. Oh, that's so good. I can't believe we missed episode 69 by what. Oh, so close. Oh, so close.

Could you, we've mentioned it related to royalty for the listener who doesn't get, are you related to royalty? All of those jokes are references to my videos. So the arsonist is a character in my videos. White Guy's Jerkinoff was one of mine.

I talk in one of the videos I made about the Queen about me being distantly related to a former royal family.
