Extended Segments:

From time to time we at Radio Freethinker produce a segment that is simply to long to make it to the show. Often times we edit it down to a manageable segment and air it normally. However we always save the whole segment for our website so our listeners can hear the full talk. We’re very happy to present these talks here since they have some great material including some pretty silly moments that would normally get cut as bloopers. Enjoy!

In Episode 27 we discussed Evolutionary Psychology. Here is the full 30 min talk.


In Episode 22 we discussed Race and Genetics. Here is the full 27 min debate in full.
