It is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring - Carl Sagan
Praise for Little Atoms
"Music to my ears, that radio show of yours: you are a shining candle in a dark world." - A.C. Grayling
"One of the most compulsively listenable shows anywhere." - The Guardian
"A totally excellent post-enlightenment chat show." - Bad Science
"Shining as a beacon of hope for all rationalists, atheists and humanists out there." - The Independent
"There is nothing on the web as carefully considered and intelligently furious as Little Atoms. A must for those who still care about art, science, humanism and argument." - Guardian Unlimited
Little Atoms is produced and presented by Neil Denny, Padraig Reidy, Anthony Burn and (very occasionally) Richard Sanderson and broadcast every Friday from 19:00 to 19:30 GMT on Resonance 104.4 FM.
Little Atoms is a show about ideas. Each show features a guest from the worlds of science, journalism, politics, academia, human rights or the arts in conversation.
If the show has a dominant and recurring theme, then it coalesces around the ideas of the Enlightenment, by which we mean freedom of expression, free inquiry, empirical rationalism, scepticism, the scientific method, secular humanism and liberal democracy. These ideas find their opposite in superstition, religious fundamentalism, fanaticism, medievalism, totalitarianism, censorship and conspiracy theory.
Our guests bring ideas that are challenging, sometimes controversial, often polemical, but always interesting.
