Reason.tv: Penn Jillette on God, No!, Atheism, Libertarianism, and More

Nick Gillespie and Jim Epstein | 9.20.2011 1:02 PM


Reason's Nick Gillespie talks with the one-and-only Penn Jillette about his best-selling new book, God, No!: Signs You May Already Be an Atheist and Other Magical Tales, his friendship with Glenn Beck, skepticism versus cynicism, the role of religion in terrorism, why he's a libertarian, and much more in a wide-ranging conversation.

Penn Jillette is the larger, louder half of Penn & Teller. For the magical duo's official website, go here.
