On Saturday, October 1, Yaron Brook will deal with the question: How can you vote objectively when your choices aren’t objective? Brook will look at the presidential candidates and various political issues from a moral standpoint and address what you should consider before checking that box on Election Day. He’ll also suggest ways to bring philosophy back into the conversation when trying to persuade others to vote morally rather than emotionally. The show starts at 7:30 a.m. Pacific/10:30 a.m. Eastern.
