Lex, I have watch many of your podcasts and I really enjoy them and get a lot of insights out of them.  The one thing that keeps nagging at my brain is that virtually all of you podcasts have some aspect that addresses the meaning of it all, or the meaning of life.  The reason this bugs me in someway is that you are solely asking this to the greatest thinkers, the most recognized experts in their field of study.  I can't help but think that you are getting a biased answer this way.  I think the meaning of life, and what is important has a whole other meaning for the nobodies in the world.  The vast majority of the people on the planet.  And then in this podcast with Philip Goff you argue that expertise,  and labels, and awards are not what is necessarily important.  I agree.  If you want the big picture then you have to sample outside the ivory towers.  Every podcast you begin by introducing the guest and listing the accomplishments, awards, books, etc. that the guest has.  They are all upper echelon, experts in their field.  Have you considered, maybe every 30 podcasts, having a special series that is the "Nobody" podcast, where you interview a regular nobody, and see what makes them tick?  I feel like you would broaden the scope beyond the experts and their particular view of what the world is all about.  Just a thought that has been running through my head for sometime now.  Your comments to Philip Goff finally got me to actually post this.,(reply>), I am not sure that there is an unbiased answer to those questions, the point of the question might not be to find "the truth" but rather a way to understand better the person you are speaking with.
