Philosophy for the People

Patrick Flynn

Philosophy for the People’s mission is an educational program aimed at overcoming the paucity of serious, fair-minded, and accessible philosophical discourse available to a popular audience. Though we are ourselves dedicated to the Catholic intellectual tradition, we are likewise committed to exploring ideas from all rigorous traditions of philosophizing (scholastic, classical, analytic, and pheno... more

  • One of the best

    I know this channel for a long time, first engaged with it on YouTube. I love the depth of the lectures, interviews, reviews. I think of course some issues should be improved a bit, maybe the way how interviews are taken, but this podcast deserves to be listened because it goes much deeper than most popular philosophy podcasts, Patt explains very hard ideas in a very understandable way which is interesting to listen.

  • Great podcast!

    Love the content, sound quality is pretty low though. I don’t normally mind, but almost to the point where it’s distracting. Specifically episode on 1/24

  • Better Resources Out There

    While I applaud this podcast for attempting to be a Philosophy 101 course, it’s not. Go to great courses or any other free college course site. On top of that, if you look at the comments and discussions, it’s all the same people and the podcasters are appealing to a certain type of person.

  • Uneven and one-sided

    These guys could use an editor. Pat and Jim seem like nice guys. But, I can’t get past the fact that this basically for conservative Catholics, and they sell it like it’s a general overview of philosophy. It’s just not.

  • Helping Me Get Through Plato/Aristotle Class

    This podcast has taught me so much! I am using it as a resource for getting through my Aristotle class this semester. Pat Flynn and Jim Madden are amazing teachers, funny guys, and both wicked smart. Also, they are both shredded. That’s a plus I guess. Dr. Madden in particular looks like what I imagine the avatar you play as in the video game Doom looks like under his mask. Highly recommend!
