I’ve been meaning to mention Diana Hsieh‘s EXCELLENT new(ish) podcast, Rationally Selfish Radio for quite some time. I’ve listened to each of her episodes thus far, and could not be more delighted with what she has started. From The Philosophic Arguments for (and against) God, to relationship advice, career choices, and book reviews, Diana covers a broad spectrum of topics and does so with keen insight and knowledge. In addition, the podcast’s technical quality is superb and her delivery of the material is top notch. She has obviously spent a tremendous amount of time and effort in creating this podcast, and the results are magnificent. It is a valuable new addition of Objectivist material online. Thank you, Diana, for creating something that has added tremendous value to my life.
My favorite episode is her interview with Craig Biddle, of The Objectivist Standard discussing the morality of altruism and it’s pernicious influences on our government. The discussion of the topic between two very well spoken and intelligent Objectivist intellectuals was a breath of fresh air. I’m also looking forward to listening to her “Exploring Atlas Shrugged” series – it’s high time I reread the book again, and I plan on using these to deepen my understanding and appreciation of the novel.
Anyone interested in learning more about the ideas of Objectivism should subscribe. It’s well worth your time.
