Welcome to the audio home of James Danielson, PhD

As a teacher at heart, a thinker by training, and a Marine by service, Dr. Danielson brings a truly distinctive voice to questions that matter, not just intellectually, but personally and culturally. His unique perspective is shaped by a career spanning decades in both military and academic settings.

Drawing from his extensive experience, including 34 years dedicated to teaching moral philosophy and biomedical ethics at universities across the country, Dr. Danielson extends his unique classroom ethos to this audio format. His former students were always encouraged not just to take positions, but to genuinely understand the reasoning behind them, to wrestle with big ideas, to listen carefully, and to speak honestly. This same spirit guides every episode, fostering an environment for genuine intellectual engagement.

Each podcast episode serves as an invitation to listeners to slow down, think deeply, and rediscover common ground rooted in shared human experience.

Whether you are a long-time student of philosophy or simply someone searching for clarity and a thoughtful space in an increasingly chaotic world, Dr. Danielson offers insights that both challenge and inspire. Tune in to begin your journey of deeper understanding.
