This week David talks to Tara Westover and the philosopher Clare Chambers about the enduring legacy of John Stuart Mill. Reading Mill’s Essays on Religion changed Tara’s life: she explains what happened, and discusses how Mill speaks to contemporary concerns about identity, conviction and doubt. Plus we talk free speech, the marketplace of ideas, the subjection of women - and why Mill isn’t comfort reading (but Thomas Carlyle is!).

No dia 29 de junho, o quinto filme da franquia Indiana Jones estreia nos cinemas Brasileiros. O longa chega às telas mais de quarenta anos depois do primeiro filme, quando Harisson Ford, estrela da franquia, tem oitenta anos.
Neste episódio, mergulhamos nas dores e delícias de Indiana Jones. Falamos sobre as origens do herói, sobre como ele encantou gerações, sobre como ele é misógino e imperialista, sobre como ele afeta a mente de humanos masculinos e sobre como se adaptou aos novos tempos.

This week David talks to science writer Meehan Crist about Thomas Malthus and the perennial question of overpopulation. Malthus wrote 225 years ago and was wrong about almost everything, yet his ideas still have a powerful hold on our imaginations and our fears. How many people is too many? What are the limits of population in the age of climate change? And why does Elon Musk think we should all be having more children?
