Philosophy Talk

The 2021 Dionysus Awards

After a year in which "entertainment" took on a whole new meaning, what were the movies that challenged our assumptions and made us think about things in new ways?

Josh and guest co-host Jeremy Sabol talk to philosophers and listeners as they present The 8th Annual Dionysus Awards for the most thought-provoking films of the past year, including:

  • Best Film Painting a World without Men
  • Best Picture That Packs All of American History into One Room
  • Trippiest Investigation of Identity (That Probably Should Have Ended Sooner)

Sunday, August 1 at 11 am.

Devon Strolovitch studied medieval Judeo-Portuguese manuscripts and earned a PhD in Linguistics from Cornell University before coming to KALW. He is the Senior Producer of Philosophy Talk, and since 2007 has hosted Fog City Blues, the weekly digest of Blues in the Bay Area and beyond.
