"Philosophers In Space" is a podcast that navigates the intriguing intersections of science fiction and philosophy. Hosted by Callie Wright and Aaron Rabinowitz, the show delves into speculative realms, exploring complex philosophical concepts through the lens of popular sci-fi media. The podcast unravels a tapestry of hypothetical scenarios and provocative questions, striving to extract deeper meanings from fantastical narratives.

Episodes frequently analyze well-known and niche science fiction series, movies, and books, using them as springboards for philosophical discussions. Themes often explored include consciousness, identity, ethics, technology, and society. There's an evident interest in how speculative futures and otherworldly settings can illuminate current philosophical debates and moral dilemmas. Discussions encompass diverse topics such as AI alignment, superstitious luck, parasitism versus symbiosis, virtue theory, and altruisms. The hosts are particularly keen on examining how narratives present alternate ways of knowing and understanding, reflecting on the impact such perspectives might have on our worldview.

The podcast also brings a critical eye to issues like meritocracy, social hierarchies, and political ideology, engaging with theories like anarcho-primitivism and anti-fascism. With a blend of seriousness and humor, the show provides an in-depth engagement with philosophical themes while remaining accessible to a broad audience. Throughout, there is a consistent effort to relate complex ideas to the storytelling elements and themes found in sci-fi, making abstract concepts tangible and relevant. Whether pondering the ethical implications of advanced technologies or critiquing the structures of power in speculative societies, "Philosophers In Space" seeks to inspire thoughtful reflection and discussion among its listeners.
