With Good Reason

Each week on With Good Reason, our ever-curious host
Sarah McConnell takes you along as she examines a wide range of topics
with leading scholars. Featured guests have included Julian Bond discussing race in America, Bruce Greyson sharing his study of near death experiences, Mike Seeger exploring American folk music, Aniko Bodroghkozy tuning in on sixties television, Bryan Caplan on the “myth of the rational voter,” Nikki Giovanni reading from her poetry, and Nobel Prize winning author Toni Morrison. 
You may discover the traditions of the samurai warrior, hear about the
ways we pre-judge others based on their accents, or laugh at the
surprising history of Hawaiian shirts.
