#1 Anders Sandberg – We may be alone in the universe

In the first episode of Bold Conjectures, I talk to Dr Anders Sandberg who is a Senior Research Fellow at Future of Humanity Institute, Oxford University.  His academic collaborators include nanotechnology pioneer Eric Dexler and the philosopher Nick Bostrom.

The audio quality isn't perfect in this one as this is my first podcast. It should get better from here :)
