Consciousness Live! Season 7
I am excited to announce the new season of Consciousness Live! I have decided to try a somewhat different approach this time and am trying to limit these to 1 or so a month. Knowing me, things will get out of hand at some point, but that is what I am aiming for. I have also been behind in the audio podcasting of these but I am starting to catch up now. Since I am trying to limit the number of the discussions I am going to be scheduling them on a continual basis rather than all at once, but as of now here is what I have for Season 7.
