I was delighted to learn today that Pete Mandik and Richard Brown mention the Cocoon and discuss my article "A New Theory of Free Will" in Episode 2 of their new philosophy podcast, "Spacetime Mind." The discussion goes from about 6:00-12:45 of the podcast, and gives a nice capsule summary of the paper's general idea.
I'd like to thank Pete and Richard for taking the time to discuss my work, and for their kind words about it. More generally, I think Pete and Richard have started a really cool thing with Spacetime Mind. Their discussions so far are a lot of fun, and super interesting, and they have a great rapport (plus, the site looks great!). I hope it goes a long way, and encourage everyone to follow them!
Oh, and a quick answer to Pete's (?) question of whether the piece hooks up with Kant's metaphysics and moral philosophy: "Yes." :)
Congrats!
