A Science Philosopher Walks Into a Bar…

Kurt and Ian speak with Steve Gimbel,Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Gettysburg College. We speak to Steve about his work on Jewish Science Philosophers and why physicists don’t do philosophy anymore. He also talks about his work on Jewish comedians in America and what draws Jewish Americans to humor. We give him a challenging quiz requiring proofs and learn about how your outfit can make or break you as both a professor and a comedian. Finally, we do our first-ever science experiment in Kurt’s Cocktail Corner. Hopefully the results are reproducible!
