Ep. 219: The Harder Problem of Consciousness (Block & Papineau)
Gregory Miller, host of the Panpsycast and consciousness researcher, joins to unpack Ned Block and David Papineau's takes on consciousness. They contrast functionalism and physicalism. They debate whether substrate matters, the limits of behavioral tests, and whether our phenomenal concepts are vague. Quick, sharp conversations about thought experiments, multiple realizability, and what would justify calling non-humans conscious.

Ep. 218: The Hard Problem of Consciousness (Chalmers et al) (Part Two)
Gregory Miller, a panpsychism researcher focused on the intrinsic nature of matter and type-F monism, joins to explore panpsychist takes on consciousness. Short, lively dives cover dualist varieties, epiphenomenalism, quantum measurement links, and whether simple proto-experiences can combine into human minds. The conversation weighs why panpsychism remains strange but resilient.
