Bob and Cass interview one of the most exciting new voices in atheist podcasting, Lydia Allan. David Smalley, of the ground-breaking podcast Dogma Debate, discovered Lydia as she was speaking at a local freethinkers meetup in Dallas. He was so impressed with her that he approached to come on his show as a regular co-host and we all benefit from his intuition. Her undergraduate degree was in Psychology, she holds two Masters degrees in Neuroscience and \xa0? and is currently working on a PhD in The History and Philosophy of Science.
\nIn the spirit of \u201cthe more you know, the more you realize you don\u2019t know,\u201d Lydia bears a refreshing humility while be very smart and well educated and even feisty at times. She\u2019s exactly the kind of voice we want at the table. One of the best mixes of learned, empathic, angry, and compassionate I\u2019ve ever interviewed.\xa0 I think you\u2019re going to like this talk.\xa0
\nThis conversation was taped on July 27th\xa0 2015.\xa0 \xa0
