Katja Grace and I just recorded two more podcasts, on:
We’ve recorded four podcasts before, on Signaling, Idealism, School, and Future.
Added 2June: I guess I wasn’t clear enough in the Saving The World podcast about the focus of my skepticism. I wasn’t saying that actually caring isn’t a part of the usual mix of charity motives, nor was I claiming that you can’t have reasonable evidence that your personal charity style is unusual. My skepticism was about too quickly assuming that a major source of your unusual style is that you just care more than most people about helping the world. This seems suspiciously self-serving, especially given all the other possible ways you could be weird.
I don't think the dichotomy between "wanting to help" and "wanting to seem or feel helpful" is so firm as it's presented here. I want both things, and while I think my first responsibility is to actually help, I also recognize that I'm more likely to do it consistently if I make it rewarding for myself in some way. One way I do that is by socializing with other people who think effective giving is admirable. There's nothing wrong with that.
See my added to the post.
