Making Sense with Sam Harris
Join neuroscientist, philosopher, and five-time New York Times best-selling author Sam Harris as he explores important and controversial questions about the mind, society, current events, moral philosophy, religion, and rationality—with an overarching focus on how a growing understanding of ourselves and the world is changing our sense of how we should live. Sam is also the creator of the Waking Up app. Combining Sam’s decades of mindfulness practice, profound wisdom from varied philosophical and contemplative traditions, and a commitment to a secular, scientific worldview, Waking Up is a resource for anyone interested in living a more examined, fulfilling life—and a new operating system for the mind. Waking Up offers free subscriptions to anyone who can’t afford one, and donates a minimum of 10% of profits to the most effective charities around the world. To learn more, please go to WakingUp.com. Sam Harris received a degree in philosophy from Stanford University and a Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA.

A rational, articulate voice
Aug 2
I appreciate Sams rational, thoughtful and articulate discussions of the pitfalls of non-truths, demigods, and theological/political extremes.
Fake Intellectual Parrot
6 days ago
Another fake intellectual that parrots information to make less successful parrots feel smarter. His TDS is so bad it’s hard to take anything else he says seriously.
No longer able to listen

Sam’s podcast is now completely unlistenable. Another person with TDS.
A pleasure

What a thrill to hear Applebaum check Sam on his increasingly misguided notions about the threats to democracy. Sam, you are the epitome of privileged whiteness. I used to find your conversations to be really intelligent. But the older you get, the more unhinged you sound. (I’m speaking of your words, not the monotonous drone of your vocal cords.) It’s uncomfortable to listen to you anymore. Anne Applebaum really did a fine job of highlighting your multitude of blind spots without even trying.
