\begin{abstract}
I am Barry Lam, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Vassar College and
the Executive Producer and Host of the Hi-Phi Nation podcast, the first
story-driven documentary-style show about philosophy. I just completed
production and release of the first season of Hi-Phi Nation as
Humanities Writ-Large fellow at Duke University, where the first season
covered stories and philosophy ranging from the possibilities of
posthumous harm, the morality of war, the referent of religious terms in
Christianity and Islam, the philosophy of music, the replication crisis
in the statistical sciences, philosophy of gender, Kuhn and scientific
realism, and the philosophy of love. I would be happy to talk about any
of the substantive issues that arose from these episodes, as well as
discuss any issues concerning doing philosophy in a story-driven way.
Here are a few select episodes on Soundcloud: Episode 1: The Wishes of
the Dead Episode 3: The Morality of War Episode 4: The Name of God
Episode 7: Hackademics II (Epistemology of Replication Crisis) Some
interviews and discussions about Hi-Phi Nation: My posts about the show
at Leiter Reports The American Philosophical Association Blog interview
Vassar's Interview Elucidations Podcast, extended discussion of the
wishes of the dead My own philosophical work has been in epistemology
and the philosophy of language, particularly on the nature of epistemic
rationality, and in experimental semantics and pragmatics. I would be
happy to have a discussion about those topics. In the past two years
I've set technical research aside to produce what I hope will be an
ongoing series of narrative story-driven philosophy akin to the best
productions we have for economics and the social sciences, such as
Freakonomics Radio and Invisibilia. It is my hope that having a
high-production story-driven show about philosophy will open up the
field to lots of new people, as well as let existing fans of philosophy
appreciate the way it connects with journalism, history, law, and
nonfiction writing. Links: Subscribe to the show on Apple Podcast Go to
