This will appeal mainly to fellow skeptics and amateur scientists. No ghosts or psychics.
In this episode of the Waking Up podcast, Sam Harris speaks with Richard Dawkins at a live event in Los Angeles (first of two). They cover religion, Jurassic Park, artificial intelligence, elitism, continuing human evolution, and other topics.

Richard Dawkins was so funny on Family Feud back in the day.
Pretty good on Hogan's Heroes too.

Sam Harris has been proven to be a fraud and a Dem shill. His opinion is completely worthless.

Please. These are two of the most respected thinkers and accomplished humans on the planet. If ghosts and psychic are valid topics, surely this is as well.

Ghosts and Psychics are real and proven out by facts. Can you even prove that these people exist? and don't point me to false internet sites that supposedly have pictures or video of these fake individuals.

Was listening to the podcast earlier...good stuff. Much of the first night was talk about AI, a topic Harris is really outspoken about.

You're a fricking idiot. Were it not for the fact Trump was a god damned moron, he'd have likely backed him given how much he's been outspoken about in regards to the democrats and liberals in general being totally wrong in regards to Islamism. Have you even heard how he's bashed Hillary? No one on the left came close to saying about her what Harris did.
Harris has been bashed HARD by democrats this cycle, as he's one of only a handful of guys that lean left who have taken on Islam.

Yes, the liberals hate Sam for the most part for the reason you gave. Of course, who doesn't, lol.
Sam is superb with language. He uses thought experiments so vividly. Years ago he warned about AI and ethics. His analogy was self driving cars and how they could be designed to make life and death decisions. For example, if an accident is eminent, should the computer instruct the car to turn left and kill three people or turn right and hit a school bus full of children. We're there.
