Peter DeTukker Peter DeTukker is an atheist epistemologist from The Netherlands; inspired by Aron Ra, Seth Andrews, Anthony Magnabosco, and others.  He started a YouTube channel that mainly focuses on religion, but he also hosts shows on other topics, including interviews with other content creators and atheists he meets through social media.  The epistemological conversations with believers are loosely based on The Atheist Experience, with a slightly different approach -- the hosts engage with only one person per episode, and endeavor to be non-confrontational.  The goal of the channel is to help people evaluate the claims posited by their belief system:  "If we can't make our guests think, we hope we can at least make our viewers think."  The hosts on his channel encourage people to value truth, science, and reality.

What started out as a one-man channel, now includes several people who contribute to the shows.  Currently, Peter is the main host, and is joined by a rotating array of co-hosts, while others lend their talents behind the scenes.  Peter also handles the production of various other YouTube channels, including Aron Ra's, Jackson Wheat's, and Jefferson Spatchcock's, and generously contributes his professional artistic skills for free to atheists all around the world.
