The Case for This Conversation
EST. AKRON - ST.V/M Class of '03 https://t.co/TrZZrgA5Yt #IPROMISE
For the curious.A philosophy podcast that sometimes flirts with other disciplines, Within Reason has featured guests including Richard Dawkins, Douglas Murray, William Lane Craig, Peter Singer, Konstantin Kisin, and Neil deGrasse Tyson.
LeBron James just turned 41 on December 30 and is still breaking basketball, becoming the first player ever to drop 30 after 41 and powering the Lakers to a 111-103 win over the Pelicans on January 7 as they ran their win streak to three to stay perfect in 2026. (sports.yahoo.com)
He has also put everyone on notice with a new approach to back-to-backs for the rest of the season, and he was ruled out for tonight’s Spurs game as the Lakers manage his right sciatica and left foot arthritis. (sports.yahoo.com)
With Luka Dončić now his teammate in Los Angeles and already closing games together, hearing LeBron break down leadership, chemistry, and longevity on Within Reason would be can’t-miss right now. (reuters.com)
He has never appeared on Within Reason before, so this would be a true first for Alex O’Connor’s audience and a rare window into how an all-time great thinks about greatness, aging, and purpose. (podcasts.apple.com)
