Om Podcasten

O Despolariza é um espaço onde se tenta transcender o dualismo e se aprende a dialogar (ou discordar) com mais ciência, humor e amor. As nossas opiniões são tão fortes quanto a nossa capacidade de argumentar contra elas e por isso mesmo os convidados são desafiados a dar um enorme exemplo de honestidade intelectual: atacar as ideias que normalmente defendem. Para além disso não há grandes regras. É um podcast com liberdade absoluta onde se fala de filosofia, psicologia, ciência, saúde, parentalidade, arte, espiritualidade, economia e muito mais. Anfitrião: Tomás Magalhães
