Scott Smith, author of the new book "God Reconsidered", joined Todd on the show for a careful, balanced, and penetrating analysis of the competing philosophies between religion and atheism. Scott S. Smith, an internationally-known business writer, brings his investigative skills to the challenge of separating the truth from the misinformation.

Todd is joined on this week's show by a tour guide from Rapa Nuia, the famous Easter Island.  Easter Island is a Chilean island in the southeastern Pacific Ocean, at the southeasternmost point of the Polynesian Triangle in Oceania. Easter Island is most famous for its nearly 1,000 extant monumental statues, called moai, created by the early Rapa Nui people. In 1995, UNESCO named Easter Island a World Heritage Site, with much of the island protected within Rapa Nui National Park.
