Yes, these are excellent, sophisitcated, philisophically based debates but ultimately unsatisfying because in every debate there are no answers or conclusions of any kind, only a summary of two sides rambling on. When Philosophy offers just more questions and no solutions I find it frustrating and useless. As much as I disagree, when listening to this podcast, I sympathise with people who say Philosophy should be confined to the academic world and has no place in every day life.

The podcasts of Michael Sandel are sophisticated philosophical analysis of some important issues in the present time. I love his delivery of speech and active participation of the audience in the debate.

Very interesting , lots of views form a wide base

Lucky students who attend Prof Sandel's lectures. What a pleasure to get involved in exploring important issues with clear understanding that there is no simplistic solution
