However, this list is focused on podcasts that are pro-science but not anti-religion, and offer a point of view of that encourages positive dialog.

Except for God Awful Movies which is just hilarious.

Hidden Brain: Us 2.0 Series

The Us 2.0 series on Hidden Brain, released shortly after the launch of this wiki, does an excellent job of making many of the same key points made in in-group, persuasion, progressive, good faith conservatism, balance of power, and other pages.

• What We Have In Common
• Win Hearts, Then Minds
• Living With Our Differences
• Not at the Dinner Table
• Lincoln's Dilemma

The whole podcast is full of practical advice for happiness, consciousness exploration, persuasion, evidence-based best practices, and the ways we must mentally deal with modern technology and capitalism. If you want to get a sense of the key ideas and perspective being presented by this wiki, listen to their entire archive.

Of course, like every scientific content creator, it presents a series of disconnected ideas rather than a holistic vision for how they are all connected. But what if you took every episode of Hidden Brain and turned it into a belief system by relating each one to a universal theme? Now that's something the NPR crowd can get behind! All hail Shankar Vedantam!
