Danny Lobell of Comical Radio and This American Life is back once again. This time, he's diving head first into philosophy (a subject he knows nothing about) with fellow comedians such as Marc Maron, Bill Burr, Lewis Black, Maria Bamford, Janeane Garofalo, Larry Miller, Reggie Watts, Artie Lange, Greg Fitzsimmons etc.  and attempts to find the answers to life's great questions. Even if the questions just lead to more questions, there will be many laughs in between. You can listen and decide: Are comedians really "modern day philosophers"?
