An Experiment in Online Religious and Philosophical Education

Podcasts are produced via Google Gemini AI and NotebookLM Plus using credible academic resources personally curated by Jeffrey L. Taylor.

The podcasts are dialogues between two AI generated male and female voices in the tradition of Plato’s dialogues. As such, I have named the presenters Socrates and Hypatia, two revered ancient Greek philosophers.


Each Podcast has an accompanying Summary and supporting text sections that make up the class contents. Classes are then grouped into Courses of related material as indicated by the “open folder: icon.

The final class in most courses is a “putting it all together” podcast that summarizes the entire course contents (indicated by the “magnifying glass” icon). For those who don’t want (or have time) to listen to all the course podcasts, listening to this podcast will give one the “Big Picture” of the course material.

Sometimes courses of related material will be grouped together as indicated by the “filing cabinet” icon.
