- The New York Times has a regular column, "The Stone," on philosophical topics [12] We'll follow the exchange on naturalism, which begins with this article [13].
- Check out "Philosophy Talk" a long running podcast on different topics in philosophy today.
- Books to consider for book groups: Logicomix, All things Shining, The Really Hard Problem.
- Fora TV, a great resource for debates and scientific talks, similar to Ted talks.[14]
- Relativism, ethnocentric issues highlighted in bizarre African documentary on Austrian customs. [15]
- Video for the Trolley Problem [16]
- First episode of Michael Sandel's video series "Justice." Reminds me of an Ethics class with a political and real world emphasis. [17]
- Randy Mayes has collected some short philosophy video to go along with his intro class. I recommend sampling some of these for topics and position papers. [18]
- Anyone interested in classical philosophers and want their original texts would be interested in this site [19] I've used it to look up The Meno, but I'm assuming more stuff is on here.

- [29] this is a fun way of looking at life. It is Joe Rogan (Fear Factor/ MMA announcer) and his philosophy, derived from taking dmt. despite the questionable technique, the philosophy is pretty good. (EL)
- [30] just another thing to consider, string theory (EL)
- [31] this is Waking Life, one of the movies that inspired my in philosophy, if you have spare time on a lazy Saturday, enjoy. i particularly like the scene with Ethan Hawke. (EL)
- [32] so this is less philosophical but it drives me to question: are we living the best way possible, or do we, as Rage Against the Machine says, "Wake up!" to the injustice? Holla back. (EL)
