Philosophy
Philosopher A.C. Grayling (whom you've seen debate along with Richard Dawkins against the notion that atheism is the new fundamentalism), has just come out with a secular bible.
His book tour just had him land for a visit with Stephen Colbert, who claims that you can't have a Bible unless it's endorsed by God... or unless you're willing to kill someone else in its name :)
And for an entirely different take, listen to Grayling and philosopher Patricia Churchland discuss The Machinery of Mind.

Inspired by Dick Armey and how he co-opted the Tea Party and gave their fringe beliefs a national platform, Comrade Che Colbert wants his Super PAC to capitalize on the growing Occupy Wall Street movement. So, he met with two young idealists whose democratic,...
- Stephen Colbert Vs. Richard Dawkins
