Podcast Overview

Inspired by Socrates's famous dictum that "the unexamined life is not worth living," More Human features conversations with scholars and students in the humanities. Each episode explores how engaging with literature, philosophy, history and art enables us to live deeper, fuller, more authentically human lives. As the official podcast of the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Humanities Center at Cuyahoga Community College, we have a particular, but not exclusive, interest in the activities of the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Scholars Academy and other work being done in northeast Ohio.

Ep. 47 - The Reality of Evil and (Dis)Belief in God – with Matt Jordan and Sam LiPuma

Does God exist? It’s a question no thoughtful person can ignore. For philosophers, it is a topic of perennial discussion and dispute. There are many arguments on both sides of the issue, and perhaps the most famous of them has to do with the reality of evil: Does all the suffering we see in the world make it irrational to believe in God, or can faith be reasonable even in the face of evil? On this episode of More Human, you will hear a debate between two Tri-C philosophers: Matthew Carey Jordan, the dean and chair for the humanities at the college’s Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Humanities Center, and Sam LiPuma, a professor of philosophy at our Western Campus in Parma. If you'd like to view the PowerPoint slides used by Dean Jordan and Professor LiPuma, copy and paste this URL into your web browser: <a href= "https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PG4QQ4ojTjLSCTMngZIMRcEXx-EYoplt"> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PG4QQ4ojTjLSCTMngZIMRcEXx-EYoplt</a> <span style= "font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"> If you’d like to see a videorecording of the debate, go here: <a href= "https://tri-c.webex.com/recordingservice/sites/tri-c/recording/749ba2aa6628103c98e672d833eb8372/playback"> https://tri-c.webex.com/recordingservice/sites/tri-c/recording/749ba2aa6628103c98e672d833eb8372/playback</a>

Ep. 45 - Flannery O'Connor, the Hillbilly Thomist -- with Damian Ference

Who is Flannery O'Connor, and why should we care? On this episode of More Human, Dean Jordan talks with philosopher and priest Damian Ference about the great "Southern Grotesque" author's work, including the value of "long, loving looks" at the mundane, race and racism, "offers of grace, usually refused," and more.
