Published: Feb. 25, 2015, 6:24 a.m.

b'On this episode of the podcast, we talk about David Hume! First, we learn about Hume\\u2019s \\u2018is\\u2019 versus \\u2018ought\\u2019 distinction and how not being mindful of this pitfall can lead us down a dangerous path. Next, we discuss the limitations of science and learn what Hume thought should fill in the gaps it leaves (spoiler alert: it\\u2019s not religion). Finally, we discuss Hume\\u2019s thoughts on causality and ensure that you\\u2019ll never think about playing pool the same way again.
