I want to educate myself on critical thinking, logic, and skepticism via audio lectures. Do you know anything?

I know of the skeptical podcasts, but prefer something more systematic.


Free is best - but not neccessary. Can you recommend a good course from The teaching company that you listened to?

It's not directly related to skepticism, but the MIT Introduction to Psychology (http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Brain-and-Cognitive-Sciences/9-00Fall-2004/CourseHome/index.htm) lecture series does cover a lot of information on how our brains and senses work. Very highly recommended.

Thanks, but not quiet what I am looking for.

Actually, if anyone can recommend stuff that he was satisfied with from

audible.com

or from

The teaching company

on any subject, I would be glad.

you might want to check out the foundation for critical thinking. They may have something.
