Hey, everybody. Welcome to Dancin' of History. I'm very happy to welcome back AC Grayling.

He's one of the smartest men I've ever interviewed. He's an intellectual here in the UK. He's

started his own university. I mean, I don't really understand that. He's written hundreds

of books on the wide array of subjects. His book on the history of philosophy was absolutely

brilliant. He's got a new book out on the frontiers of knowledge. And so we just thought we could

catch up with him, talk about what he's learning about history, about science and other subjects,

and check in with the National Institution that is AC Grayling. I gotta say, he didn't

annoy me, say it's on the podcast, but let me tell you something. He told me that every

as the mind as we all should. He goes on the treadmill and you know what, just the past

time? Wanna Britain's cleverest men? Yo, I guess. He watches history here at dot tv. True

fact. I didn't even know that. I didn't even know he's subscribed. I'd given him a free

subscription. So he's an actual member of the public that subscribes to history at dot tv.

Like tens of thousands of other people. Great stuff. So the next time you're watching,

or when you go and subscribe now, you're in the footsteps. You're in the shadow of

AC Grayling. That's what he does. So be like AC. Go to historyhit.tv. Subscribe to

World's Best History Channel. You can listen to all these podcasts. You can watch hundreds

of hours of history documentaries. You can act like AC Grayling. Pretty sweet. So head

over there, historyhit.tv. But in the meantime, here's the great man himself. Enjoy.

AC Grayling, thank you very much for coming on the podcast. Real pleasure. Last time we

were talking about your managerial history of philosophy, which is something I've returned

to many times since our conversation. I did remember thinking, what do you write after
