Intellectually Humble and Thoughtful
DtA is a pragmatist-leaning podcast that tries to explore a bunch of topics with an eye toward ideas that are useful. Don't let that fool you though into thinking it's just about philosophy. It's an interview-based format with experts and authors, most of them discussing what they think will help us solve some of our social and political problems.
Intellectually rigorous but not too stuffy. ;) Some episodes can be a bit more difficult for novices but overall you can listen to them as standalone segments.
Really cool to see this podcast grow since it launched last year. Erraticus must be doing something right.

Great experience
I was a guest on the show and it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. It helped that Jeffrey was an extremely well prepared, yet approachable and personable host. He sent a list of over 20 well written, thoughtful, and relevant questions. I greatly appreciated that courtesy. This helped me hold up my end of the conversation. I hope listeners enjoy episode 15 about the commons. Jeffrey's way of doing things and philosophy make this kind of work go well, not to mention are much needed in a world dominated by media designed to be divisive. In this way, Damn the Absolute is a great tonic.

The Practical Consequences of Ideas
The show fills a unique niche in the world of ideas and philosophy.
DtA has got an academic quality to it but feels a bit more open in that the guests usually end up talking about what their ideas mean in our daily lives or for the rest of us non-academic types.
Lots of episodes related to philosophical pragmatism but there's a worthwhile sprinkling of other topics like local architecture, placemaking, small-scale agriculture, unschooling, and political philosophy.
