The Center for Inquiry's mission is "to foster a secular society based on science, reason, freedom of inquiry, and humanist values". It has a regular podcast, Point of Inquiry (POE), and Chris Mooney is a science blogger who is an atheist and an author, who has been interviewed several by D.J. Grothe, the then host of the POI podcast.

Chris Mooney is a very well-noted science blogger who runs the Intersection blog together with Sheril Kirshenbaum. Sheril Kirshenbaum and Chris Mooney co-authored a very good book, "Unscientific America: How Scientific Illiteracy Threatens our Future".
Chris Mooney has authored another couple of books, "The Republican War on Science", and "Storm World: Hurricanes, Politics, and the Battle Over Global Warming".


Here are the episodes in which Chris Mooney was interviewed and/or featured. The reason for posting this list is because I need it as a permanently linkable list for a blog post I am doing, and the POI search engine will not apparently give any linkable results.
